Go Pro IDC OWSI certification - Instructor with Alain Barrat, PADI Course Director

Where can I get my PADI IDC Instructor certificate in Thailand?

Take part in PADI Go Pro OWSI! One of our professional scuba diving training courses in Phuket.

​

 The interesting part and challenging part: 

The fun parts of the instructor training are the exchanges, with the other course's participants, which create friendships that last long after the course. You will begin to communicate on the net with other professionals and explore the PADI Pro website for a job. You will also have the opportunity to continue your professional training by participating in our In-depth or Master IDC packages including Speciality Instructor courses, which allow you to teach specialties directly after your IE and receiving your instructor certification.

​

The challenging part of this course is your commitment to training. Before the beginning of the course, you must complete all theory and the PADI general standards, system, and procedures exams by an independent study. During the course, you must prepare topics for knowledge development, confined water, and open water presentations. The preparation, organization, and efforts are the keys to success for this certification which is an exam over 18 days. During the first sixteen days, Alain will not only be your mentor but also your examiner. During the last two days when at the IE, a PADI auditor (Examiner) will verify your training and nothing new will be taught. The IE is a program designed to revise your abilities to learn during your IDC by a person working for PADI.

​

Below, you will find links regarding the course's prerequisites, duties, prices, PADI fees, and a schedule example.
