PADI INSTRUCTOR EXAMINATIONS – 2 days

After successfully completing your PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) with us, you are ready to attend a PADI Instructor Examination (IE)! PADI IE is designed to evaluate your readiness, knowledge and skills to earn your PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor rating before you start conducting PADI courses in the real world.

During this two and a half day program PADI Instructor Examiners from PADI International offices will screen and evaluate your diving skills, teaching presentations for knowledge development, confined water and open water. You will also demonstrate that you have a good understanding in dive theory, the PADI System/Standards and Procedure. Your attitude and professionalism will also be evaluated.

According to our past PADI IDC candidates, PADI IE is the easiest part in the whole instructor-training process. You just have to do what you have learned during your PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) one more time!

PADI Instructor Examinations is divided into 4 modules;

Module 1 - Written Exams

1. Dive theory Exams – Physics, Physiology, RDP, Equipment, Skills & Environment (12 questions each area).
   

2. PADI System, Standards and Procedure - open book, you can use your PADI Instructor manual and Instructor Candidate Workbook (50 questions)
   

Module 2 - Knowledge Development presentation

1. Prepare and present one prescriptive teaching presentation in a classroom environment from an assigned question.
   

Module 3 - Confined water

1. Teach one skill assigned by the Examiner
   

2. Demonstrate 5 skills from Open Water Diver course chosen by the Examiner
   

Module 4 - Open water

2. Demonstrate rescue skill exercise number 7 (Unresponsive diver at the surface) using either mouth to mouth or mouth to pocket mask.
   

Your general diving skills, attitude and professionalism as a dive professional will also be observed during the entire IE program.
