Salem Scuba’s, PADI IDC Prep Day:

Build a confident foundation for the PADI IDC!

Are you about to start your IDC? Are you a bit unsure if you’re ready? Do you want a no-pressure refresher of demonstration quality of your twenty-four skills? Do you want a run-through of how to confidently navigate the PADI materials? Do you want to regain the confidence in Dive Theory that you had when you completed your divemaster course – especially Physics and the RDP?

Join Salem Scuba, as Dea prepares you with foundational knowledge to help avoid some of the stumbling blocks during the IDC. This relatively new addition to our IDC curriculum has proven beneficial to reducing stress and increasing confidence in the IDC.

During the Confined Water session, Dea will provide role-model demonstrations of some of the more challenging skills. He will work with you to review your equipment to verify that all is in working order and is configured for your success as an IDC candidate, as well as once you become a PADI OWSI.

Note: This class does include an afternoon pool session, so please come prepared with appropriate pool gear + towels, and dry clothes.

During the Classroom session, Dea will also provide an overview of the various PADI materials and resources. He will demonstrate how to navigate the PADI Instructor Manual and the Guide to Teaching as well as the PADI eLearning platform. AND, he will go through some Dive Theory questions – giving special focus to the Physics and RDP / eRDPml.
