Become a Dive Instructor with the Upcoming PADI IDCs at Oceans 5 Gili Air
The Upcoming PADI IDCs at Oceans 5 Gili Air
Start your career with confidence, quality, and purposeIf you’ve ever dreamed of becoming a PADI Instructor and turning your passion for diving into a rewarding career, now is the time to take the leap. The next PADI Instructor Development Courses (IDCs) at Oceans 5 Gili Air are scheduled to begin on August 6th and September 10th, led by PADI Course Director Warren “Waz” Beyers.
Located on the serene and eco-conscious island of Gili Air, Oceans 5 is not just another dive center—it’s a PADI Career Development Centre, recognized for its commitment to excellence in instructor-level training, marine conservation, and personalized support.
Why Choose the PADI IDC at Oceans 5 Gili Air?
At Oceans 5 Gili Air, the IDC is more than just a course to pass the PADI Instructor Examination (IE). It’s a comprehensive program that transforms dive professionals into confident, competent, and environmentally aware instructors—ready to teach anywhere in the world.
Here’s what makes the PADI IDC at Oceans 5 Gili Air different:
1. Consistent Quality of Instruction
Our PADI IDCs are limited to a small number of candidates—usually no more than six—to ensure personal attention and in-depth feedback. Every IDC is taught in alignment with PADI standards, but what sets us apart is the depth of explanation, the practical application of each teaching method, and the real-world scenarios we simulate throughout the course.
Whether you’re teaching in warm tropical waters or a cold inland quarry, you’ll leave the IDC with adaptable and realistic teaching techniques, not just a script. Our goal isn’t to get you through the IE. It’s to prepare you to succeed and thrive as a dive instructor.
2. Environmentally Focused Approach
At Oceans 5 Gili Air, we believe that every dive professional has a role to play in protecting the ocean. From day one, environmental awareness is woven into the course. Our IDC candidates learn how to teach and dive with perfect neutral buoyancy, how to minimize environmental impact, and how to inspire students to become ambassadors for the ocean.
The IDC includes optional conservation workshops and activities such as reef surveys, cleanups, and presentations by local NGOs and marine biologists.
3. Realistic Teaching Methods that Don’t Need Retouching
A common frustration dive shop managers express is having to “retrain” newly certified instructors. That’s not the case with graduates of Oceans 5. We’re proud that our PADI Instructors are ready to work on day one. They’ve practiced realistic scenarios, learned how to manage real students, and developed a sense of responsibility and leadership that dive shops value.
Our IDC graduates are known for their professionalism, skill mastery, and teaching confidence. You won’t be someone who needs to be “fixed”—you’ll be someone who can start teaching independently, immediately.
