IDC Facilities & Features
Course Director
Our Course Director is Brendon Sing. He is an experienced CD who runs IDC's at Koh Lanta during the season there, and working here in Bunaken fits in with his season - when its high season here its low season there. For more information about Brendon, have a look at his site www.prorec-tec.com.
Unlike some CDs, Brendon personally teaches on the IDC, and he uses his experience of numerous IDCs and PADI courses to make sure that you know how to teach all the relevant PADI courses according to how PADI want you to teach them.
His aim is to turn you into GREAT PADI Instructors. The IDC is hard work but Brendon makes it alot of fun.
Classroom
We have a purpose built classroom with air-conditioner and tv.
During the classroom sessions we make extensive use of slides
as well as videos to make it more fun.

Skill Practise
During the IDC Prep we will be spending time reviewing your underwater skills to refine them for teaching.
During the IDC there will also be sessions to build on your skills, but they will be focused on how to teach the PADI courses, so if you are unsure about your skills then its better to attend the Prep.
|
Workshops
In order to teach some of the PADI Advanced Course and Specialities,
you need to be able have some "extra" skills such as tieing a
reef knot or deploy a lifting bag. However, not everyone knows
how to do these, so we conduct workshops in the evenings that
cover these extra skills. |
Rescue Practise
Between every water session you will be practising your rescue skills, and after about 12 times you start to get the hang of it! Our belief is that you cannot teach the PADI Rescue Course unless you can rescue someone yourself "with your eye's closed".
|
Real-life experiences
We try and make your IDC as real as it can be, after all as an instructor you are going to be spending alot of your time in or near the water! We therefore make you conduct many brefings and debriefings in the water and on the boat.
|
Primary Objective
Our overall objective is to teach you how to be a GREAT PADI Instructor.
Passing the IE is a secondary objective, it is NOT the primary objective, and this is what makes us different from other IDC courses. We believe that if you teach IDC students how to be GREAT instructors, then the IE is just a formality.

One of our IDC candidates on our Sept 07 IDC sent us his IDC pictures on Flickr. Check them out by clicking here.
Job Placement
Many people ask us about jobs after the IDC. Unfortunately we cannot guarantee any jobs as Bunaken and Lembeh are not on the main-stream holiday route. However, with Brendons contacts in Thailand and in other countries on SE Asia, he is well placed to help place students with their first job as a PADI Instructor.
