PADI 5 Star Instructor Development

Home > IDC News > November 18th, 2010

November 18th, 2010
Monsoon Madness doesn’t affect Crystal’s 100% IDC/IE success rate!

Another successful Instructor Development Course finished today with Crystal Dive producing 7 new PADI Instructors. The program was conducted during some of the heaviest rain fall Koh Tao has experienced in more than 3 years..!!

Although the poor weather and diving conditions made the course more challenging, to conduct than most, it did not dampen spirits, nor prevent PADI Course Directors Matt Bolton & Justin Mayers continuing with their perfect pass rate for 2010.

Once again Crystal’s candidates received praise from the PADI examiners, for the outstanding performances on the Instructor Examinations (IE), and once again the candidates commented how easy the IE was!

Two of the candidate travelled all the way from the Andaman Islands to participate in the IDC with our head Platinum Course Director Matt Bolton, testimony of his outstanding reputation within the Industry.

As well as the 7 Brand New PADI Instructors, there was also 3 New IDC Staff Instructors certified on this IDC. Nick Hebrant, Stuart Bridges and Alan Avetoom all took the next step up on the PADI Pro’s ladder and will now work towards the Master Instructor rating in 2011.

Big Party @ Vibe Bar tonight, day off tomorrow and then the Master Scuba Diver Trainer program starts on the 20th and the weather…………..it’s sunny again!
