Build upon your foundation as a PADI Instructor and join the Instructor Development process. You’ll benefit from taking your PADI IDC Staff Instructor course in our PADI Career Development Centre. PADI IDC Staff Instructors are qualified to teach Assistant Instructor Courses independently, thereby enhancing your employment prospects, earnings potential, and professional standing within the dive industry. Another benefit of becoming an IDC Staff Instructor is you can assist or conduct Instructor Development Courses (IDCs) under the supervision of a PADI Course Director. The PADI IDC Staff Instructor course is comprised of a two-day pre-assessment followed by auditing one of our IDCs in its entirety for nine days. In the pre-assessment, you will brush up on your dive theory, standards and changes, refresh your evaluation skills and receive presentations related to Instructor Development. While auditing the IDC, you’ll refresh and take your own notes on the IDC curriculum and work with our Course Directors and IDC Staff Instructors on evaluation sessions and learn how to grade candidates as they present their teaching assignments.

The PADI Enriched Air Diver course is the most popular diver specialty course and the number of technical divers is on the rise, which means that lots of scuba divers want enriched air and gas blends. The Tec Gas Blender course teaches you to blend enriched air nitrox and helium-blend gases using one or more blending methods. Being the blender is a key job at a busy PADI Dive Centre or Resort and your work allows other divers to do what they love to do – scuba dive. Prerequisites

If you’re into technical diving then you know that to extend your depth range you need to use trimix – a blend of helium, oxygen and nitrogen. The Tec Trimix 65 course introduces you to using trimix down to a maximum depth of 65 metres/210 feet. There are advantages to using three gases, but you need to know how to do it right. Earning the Tec Trimix 65 certification makes deeper exploration a reality. Prerequisites

Ready for the outer edge of technical diving? The Tec Trimix Diver course takes experienced tec divers and turns them into extreme divers who go deeper and visit pristine sites where few others will ever go. During the course, you’ll make dives as deep as 90 metres/300 feet, but once you earn this tough certification, there are few limits. Your training teaches you to build experience gradually and you do it because you’ve made it this far and have more exploring to do. Prerequisites:

- Have a minimum of 150 logged dives
- Are at least 18 years old

Rebreathers used to be only for technical diving, but not anymore. New Type R (recreational) rebreathers are lightweight, easy-to-transport and have sophisticated electronics to simplify their use. Why dive a rebreather? You get longer no stop limits, reduced gas consumption because you reuse most of your exhaled gas, and unmatched wildlife encounters because you don’t release annoying bubbles. The PADI Rebreather Diver course introduces you to rebreather diving to a maximum depth of 18 metres/60 feet and lets you experience things you never imagined possible as a scuba diver. This course builds on your PADI Rebreather Diver certification by expanding your knowledge, adding a bailout cylinder, and training you to dive as deep as 40 metres. Prerequisites
- Be a PADI Advanced Open Water Diver (or equivalent)
- Be a PADI EANx Diver (or equivalent)
