Instructor Examination
After you complete your IDC, you demonstrate what you've learned in
the Instructor Examination (IE). Here a PADI Instructor Examiner
independently and objectively assesses your knowledge and skills,
testing everything from dive theory to PADI training standards. PADI
is the only certification organization that requires an objective,
independent examination to qualify as a professional instructor.
This balanced and consistent evaluation process is one of the
hallmarks that makes PADI professionals the most demanded and
respected instructors in the dive industry.

Successful completion of PADI IDC
What it takes:
- Dive theory and standards and procedures exams
- Waterskills and diver rescue assessment
