PADI ORIENTATION COURSE

From experience we have found that people from organisations other than PADI may find it difficult to go straight onto the Assistant Instructor course and then onto the IDC.  If you are equivalent to a Divemaster, or an Instructor from another organisation this course will help you greatly during your PADI Instructor courses.  

This course can also be taken by people who are PADI Divemasters and wish to refresh their skills before completing the AI and IDC.

We will go through all the PADI courses and familiarise you with the quizzes, exams and how PADI like things done.  We will also make sure that your skills are up to the standard expected on an Instructor course, and if necessary we will fine tune your skills.  During this course we will go through all the Instructor level theory including the PADI tables and other areas unique to PADI.

We have a BSAC Instructor on staff so any differences between these organisations can be explained fully.

Pre-requisites - Divemaster or equivalent or Instructor from another organisation

Minimum Age - 18 years old

Duration - 2-3 days depending on experience

What does this enable me to do? Be fully prepared for the Assistant Instructor course.

Price -  €180

Where next? - Assistant Instructor
