Guidelines for a PADI IDC

Gili Air, Lombok -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/14/2018 -- With so many different locations offering PADI Instructor Development Course Instructor Development Courses (IDCs) it can be overwhelming to know which location is best for PADI Divemasters. Nowadays they can become a PADI Diving Instructor in almost any country around the world. But how do they pick the best place to begin their career as a diving instructor?

A PADI IDC is a big investment. A PADI Divemaster should decide where based on which location and centre is best for them and their future, not on price. Selecting the right place to do their IDC will help them kick start their life as an instructor and ensure a return on that investment. Here's a few questions they should ask theirself when choosing where to do their PADI Instructor Development Course.

What are the diving conditions like at this IDC location?

Do you want to be diving in warm or cool waters? Is the water fresh or salt water? What is the visibility like? Are conditions calm or is there often large swells? Is there strong current? Will the candidates be diving from the shore or on a boat? Do the boats come back between each dive or are the divers out all day?

These are all questions the divemaster want to ask when selecting a location for their IDC. Diving varies greatly around the world. It's important to consider what type of diving they enjoy and what conditions they want to be learning to teach in.

Where do they plan to work as a dive instructor after their Instructor Course?

As well as considering the conditions they like to dive in, it's also beneficial to complete their Instructor Development Course in conditions similar to those they plan to work in. At least when they first start teaching. For example, if the IDC candidates plan to teach in Northern Europe where it's often low visibility and requires a dry suit, they might not want to do their IDC in warm, crystal clear tropical waters. Before, during and after their IDC they have the opportunity to network and build connections in that location. They will also already be familiar with the dive practices specific to that area. They can then gain valuable experience in familiar dive conditions before moving on to a location.

What other professional dive training is available at this Instructor Training location?

In addition to the PADI Instructor Development Course, the IDC candidates often have the chance to complete further training to enhance their skills and employability. Have a look at what additional courses different IDC locations offer to them, for example team teaching, Instructor Specialities, Master Scuba Diver Trainer Programs. All of these can help stand out from other new instructors and are often offered at special rates for IDC candidates. If you know IDC candidates want to work towards becoming a PADI Staff Instructor, and perhaps Course Director, check out whether the IDC location or Course Director offer these opportunities.

Your-IDC offers a variety of extra training from free prep workshops to Instructor Specialities, MSDT training and even Disabled Divers International (DDI) Instructor training.

What is the experience of the PADI Course Director teaching the IDCs in this location?

One factor to consider is how experienced is the Course Director who will be teaching you. But experience is hard to quantify, it's not just about the length of time someone has been a Course Director or how many IDCs they've taught. It's also good to know where the Course Director has worked, do they experience teaching a variety of courses in different conditions?

The Course Director plays a pivotal role in the r development as an instructor, so it's important to find the right one. Not only will the divemaster spend a couple of weeks training with them, but they will continue to be your mentor throughout your career. Don't hesitate to get in touch with the potential Course Directors, they are there to answer your questions. If the IDC candidates don't feel comfortable or reassured corresponding with their PADI Course Director, then it's probably a sign to look for a different one.

Not only do the Course Directors at Your-IDC have over 60 years of experience between them, they have also dived and taught in a huge variety of conditions. From the strong currents of Indonesia to the open ocean off Mozambique, from the cold lakes of Switzerland to the calm bays of the Caribbean, the team has gained invaluable skills and techniques they can't wait to share with you.

What are the IDC facilities and accommodation like at this location?

To learn effectively, IDC candidates need to be in the right environment. A spacious classroom, quiet areas for independent study and easy access to the water are all beneficial to your training. Does the location have adequate and spacious facilities? Is there a suitable training pool on site or confined sessions to take place in the ocean? Is there a good WIFI connection? Is there adequate accommodation available at this location? Do the IDC candidates want to stay at the IDC Centre or would you prefer offsite accommodation?

What is the location itself like?

The IDC candidates are going to be living in this location for at least a few weeks, so they want to like the town, island or city they'll be based in. Do they prefer a quiet tropical island, or do they like somewhere with more amenities and activities? As well as the actual IDC centre, have a look at the location in which it is situated and make sure it suits. Your-IDC has a variety of locations to suit all tastes.

Do you like the have the ocean as your office?

Gili Air, Lombok -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/11/2018 -- The PADI Divemaster course is one of the most rewarding scuba diving certifications a scuba diver can complete. And not just because it's one of the most time consuming, or because it is the first professional qualification. The Divemaster course is so fulfilling because it provides them with invaluable skills and unforgettable experiences that enrich many aspects of their life, not just their scuba diving.

Whether or not a scuba diver plans to pursue a career in the scuba diving industry, the PADI Divemaster course has a lot to offer them. Most of us are aware that the divemaster course provides us with the opportunity to hone their diving skills and gain work experience in a dive shop. But there are many other, less obvious, benefits of completing the course?

Becoming a divemaster is a big commitment of both time and energy but Oceans 5 believes that the rewards far outweigh the costs, no matter what their next step may be. In case scuba divers needed a little help committing, here's why completing their PADI Divemaster course should be their next big adventure.

* Become a confident and competent scuba diver. Know how to handle yourself in all situations.

This one is kind of obvious, but still worth highlighting as it's a big part of the journey to becoming a divemaster. Throughout the course, the scuba diver will be exposed to many different scenarios, both real and staged. The divemaster candidate will learn and practise the skills to deal with these unforeseen situations and potential emergencies, whilst remaining calm. By the end of the course, they will know how to handle themself and help others, both above and below the surface.

Although the PADI Rescue Diver course introduces the divemaster candidates to this, the timescale and in-depth workshops involved of the PADI Divemaster course provides them with a much stronger understanding of looking after theirself and others. Plus the opportunity to practise and use those skills in real situations. Being able to handle stressful situations and solve problems quickly is a skill they can take with them in any area of life, not just scuba diving!

Strong reverse current? Burst O-ring? Panicking diver? No problem. The divemaster candidates know exactly how to handle it without getting flustered!

* Become part of the team.

When a scuba diver completes their divemaster, they're not a regular customer at the shop anymore. They become part of the team. They are welcomed into the shop as part of the family. If they are already a diver, they will be familiar with the fun and friendly atmosphere of dive centres, and as a Divemaster candidate, they get to be a part of that every day.

Being part of the team also allows the divemasters to gain valuable insight into the running of a dive centre and gain experience working as part of a team. Dive centres often have some pretty big characters and a variety of cultures and nationalities. Learning to work with different people in challenging environments is always a beneficial experience!

* Discover a new place.

After you rescue certification a scuba diver can complete their Divemaster course in as little as 4 weeks, but Oceans 5 recommend at least 2 months to really get the most out of the training. Therefore, the divemaster candidates will live in the area where the dive centre is located. This is a very different to just travelling through or spending time as part of a holiday. They will be essentially living and working, developing their routines and discovering the best parts of the area. From finding those secret spots for trying the tastiest home-cooked dishes, to picking up some of the local language or just waving good morning to the neighbours. When divemasters stay somewhere longer they become part of the community. This allows them to experience a different way of life.

Their discovery isn't just on land. During the Divemaster course, they will be able to fully explore the local dive sites. They 'll find out where that cute pink frogfish likes to hang out, where the juvenile white tip sharks rest during the day and they may even start to know some of the turtles in the Gilis by name!

* Stay fit

Although not the main reason people complete their Divemaster, their physical fitness will certainly improve. Apart from diving every day, they will also be carrying tanks, setting up gear, lifting theirself up onto the boat and helping newbie divers both above and below the water. All of that combined is just as effective, if not more, as a regular fitness regime. Getting (or staying) fit is just one of the additional benefits of the PADI Divemaster course.

* Dive every day.

One of the main benefits of completing your Divemaster course is that divemasters have the chance to go scuba diving every day. Something they are all aiming for in life! Every day they have the chance to explore below the surface and encounter their favourite marine life. Turtles will be spotted at 99% of the dives here on the Gilis? Who wouldn't want to swim with turtles every day?

* Meet people from all over the world.

Scuba diving attracts people from all corners of the globe. As a Divemaster candidate they get to meet people from many different walks of life, with a variety of cultures and backgrounds. The interesting conversations and variety of stories told is enjoyable enough, but don't forget to consider the future benefits of this amazing networking. Perhaps that guy they chatted to about nudibranchs is friends with someone who is hiring for a role you'd be perfect for? Or even introduces them to your future partner? Divemasters never know who they might meet in the diving industry, or how they might be able to help each other out in the future.

* Make life-long friends.

Most dive centres will have more than just one Divemaster candidate at a time, meaning that it's likely they will be embarking on this journey with others who share their passion for all things scuba. When they're spending around 2 months with these people, as well as the dive centre staff, it's likely they'll make at least one friend for life, if not more! Sharing the highs and lows of the Divemaster training and living away from their home and family often generates strong bonds between people. Throw in the fact they all love the ocean and they've got a recipe for lasting friendships!

* Add invaluable skills to their CV.

It is obvious that the Divemaster Course is a vital part of their CV is they want to work in scuba diving. But the valuable skills and experience they gain are extremely relevant for most careers, not just diving?

During the Divemaster course the scuba divers develop a high level of professionalism and customer service. They practise leadership through guiding and scuba reviews (refresher/tune ups), public speaking and presenting through briefings. They learn risk management and safety considerations, first aid, boat management, working efficiently as part of a team, practical problem solving. These are all transferable skills that will help them excel in whichever direction they take their career in.

* Be an ocean ambassador & support marine conservation.

Both during the Divemaster and afterwards, they are an ambassador of the ocean. They help to educate others and raise awareness of the threats to the marine world. During the divemaster course, it is likely they will have the chance to get involved in marine conservation activities or events. At Oceans5 Dive, the Divemaster candidates are encourage to run our weekly beach cleanups and get involved in monthly reef clean-up dives, as well as participate in events run by The Gili Shark Conservation.

The PADI Divemaster course is much more than just a diving certification. It provides divers with key skills alongside unforgettable and unique life experiences. There is no doubt that this should be their next adventure!

* Happy divemaster diving

Oceans 5 Dive on Gili Air welcomes Divemaster candidates to start anytime. As mentioned, they recommend them spend at least 8 weeks with Oceans 5 for the course, but if divers are tight on time Oceans 5 can tailor the course to suit their requirements.

Oceans 5 believe that the Divemaster Course is more than just ticking off the PADI requirements. They strive to deliver the divemaster candidates the best possible training to suit their personal and professional goals. As a 5* PADI Career Development Centre, they offer the Divemaster candidates the opportunity to learn additional skills, from fish and coral identification to a neutrally buoyant skills circuit.

PADI Course Directors Giny Pinto, Gierre Gruter, Li Ding, Joeri van Hal, Alina Conroy and Sander Buis have made an instructor program that covers a realistic way of teaching.

Teaching in a realistic way has some advantages. The instructor candidates will be prepared to deal with "real" like situations. This results in candidates or future scuba dive instructors who has confidence how to teach and how to deal with unexpected situations. This makes the instructor candidates more employable as a scuba instructor.

In the past it was very normal to have your students on their knees on the bottom of the pool or on the a sandy patch of the ocean. The PADI Course Directors of Oceans 5 have decided to teach the Instructor candidates to demonstrate and control the future students neutral buoyant. This is the way it should be! On a normal dive the diver is not allowed to touch the marine life!

Teaching is not the only way to differ from other instructors. Oceans 5 teaches the candidates also different marketing techniques how to get the instructors name out in the world. The result is that Oceans 5 and her course directors are not only making instructors who are perfect in teaching but also thinking about their career in the scuba world. It not only about Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Its also about presenting yourself on the web.

PADI IDC Gili Islands conducts once a month PADI IDCs with dive resort Oceans 5

Lombok, Indonesia -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/04/2014 -- How to become a PADI Divemaster or PADI Instructor is an interesting question. Oceans 5 Dive Center is the place for everyone who is interested in becoming a professional PADI instructor. Oceans 5 and IDC Gili Islands conduct once a month PADI IDCs at the beautiful island Gili Air, Gili Islands, Indonesia.

Oceans 5 Dive Resort is a PADI Career Development Center (CDC) and is the only dive center on the Gili Islands where divers can add the Reef Check Eco Diver Course and the Disabled Divers International (DDI) to their internships.

What does Reef Check stands for?

The Reef Check Foundation is an international non-profit organization dedicated to conservation of two ecosystems: tropical coral reefs and California rocky reefs. Reef Check goals are to: educate the public about the value of reef ecosystems and the current crisis affecting marine life; to create a global network of volunteer teams trained in Reef Check's scientific methods who regularly monitor and report on reef health; to facilitate collaboration that produces ecologically sound and economically sustainable solutions; and to stimulate local community action to protect remaining pristine reefs and rehabilitate damaged reefs worldwide.

Where does Disabled Divers International (DDI) stands for?

Disabled Divers International (DDI) is a non-profit organization, with the aim to promote, develop and conduct disabled scuba diving training programs for professional and non-professional students. The DDI program adds a new layer on top of the existing diver training, allowing individuals who have difficulties fulfilling all requirements and standards to experience diving safely with modifications and enhancements to their training and or equipment.

DDI professional training adds to the diving professional a new set of tools and knowledge to train disabled divers safely and certify their students as a scuba diver, with varied levels of limitations depending on the student's ability to perform program requirements and standards.
