Congratulations to one of our founding Course Directors here at idc-guide, Steve Prior, Steve does his IDCs in the UK and in Egypt, has just been awarded PADI Platinum Course Director status again!
There are only 61 Platinum CD’s in the world for 2010 so this is a major achievement. Well done Steve.
This guide to the padi idc hasn’t been opened up to ‘all world’ yet and doesnt want to be a ‘volume’ advertiser of the PADI IDC but wants to be a quality producer of PADI IDC dive theory info and highlighter of quality PADI course directors, as such the founding Course Directors get to chat about other Course Directors that want to be included every month (idc-guide and the ‘founding course directors’ are allowed to veto any application) This ensures a high standard of future entries. To maintain our standards we have three categories that must be passed to guarantee inclusion, our guidelines are broadly:
1, Course Director / IDC Reputation, be in good standing with PADI and IDC students
2, Website standards / quality must be modern / unique and imformative
3, Any application may not be in direct Competition with other CDs
Membership of the IDC-Guide is reviewed annually and the minimum term of inclusion is 1 year.
Often get asked about my experiences of diving and have put some of the best scuba diving video of the places I have lived / worked and visited together so you can experience what its like in Egypt / Thailand and the Philippines (coming soon)
Click on the image to take you to the Egypt and Thailand DVDs and you can purchase these online.
We are happy to announce that we now have our 5 founding PADI Course Directors with the IDC-Guide and they represent the finest PADI education for Instructors available in the world, with a Course Director on the IDC-Guide you can take your IDC in Thailand, UK, Egypt (Sharm), Germany, Honduras in the Caribbean and Dubai. Representing some of the the best / most popular diving locations in the world
Over the next year we will be recruiting other outstanding Course Directors from Florida, Australia, Spain, Indonesia and other top dive locations around the globe.
