We have teamed up with Emperor Divers in Sharm to offer you the very best PADI Instructor Development Course (PADI IDC) available anywhere in the world. When you take your PADI IDC with us, you get:

You can start your PADI IDC today! Once you have signed up for your PADI Instructor Development Course (PADI IDC) with us, you have expert knowledge literally at your fingertips. You will be encouraged to test your knowledge of Dive Theory (physics, physiology, RDP, equipment, skills and the environment and PADI Standards) and you are invited to email your exam answers to us. Our feedback and advice will ensure your PADI IDC preparation is right on track.


Many people prefer classroom based preparation before they start their PADI IDC to iron out any issues. We schedule a 2 Day Prep Course immediately before the PADI IDC so whether it is dive theory or skills that you feel you need help with, you will have expert advice all the way. If you decide to buy this course as an extra, you will learn tips and tricks to help you pass your exams and advice on how to improve your skill demonstrations. Our PADI IDC Prep Courses are highly popular and give you the best chance to pass your PADI Instructor Exam first time!
An added benefit of taking your PADI IDC with us is that we schedule the course over 10 days. This extra FREE day allows time for any gaps in your knowledge to be filled under expert guidence. We also incorporate a mock exam ahead of the actual PADI exam which means that you are prepared for success at that all important PADI Instructor's Exam.

Relax and spread out in air-conditioned classrooms as you soak up the knowledge you need to become a confident and effective PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor.
The swimming pool we use for your confined water training has unlimited
availability and is literally right outside the classroom door so there is no rushing to meet pool slots and no need to lug your dive gear around.
Keep cool from the Egyptian sun beneath the palm trees as we de-camp to Shark's Bay for your open water training in the Red Sea. Emperor Divers Sharm has permanent facilities and helpful, dedicated staff on the beach at Shark's Bay to take care of you and your equipment so the only worry you have is what factor sunscreen to apply.


Our PADI Instructor Development Course (PADI IDC) schedule is planned so that you can incorporate Specialty Instructor Training into your development. Where better than the Egyptian Red Sea to learn how to teach specialties? This training will increase your confidence and extend your teaching range when you qualify at the PADI Instructor's Exam (PADI IE). It's much more relaxing and fun for you the instructor, if the first courses you teach are 1 or 2 days duration with divers who can already dive.
Steve's schedule also includes this hugely popular course which is essential for you, the PADI Scuba Instructor. You will be qualified to teach divers and non-divers alike all they need to know about First Aid and CPR and give them the confidence to care. This means you will be able to teach a PADI Rescue Diver Course from start to finish including the required First Aid and CPR skills.

Remember you can
start your PADI Instructor Development Course before you even leave
home. As soon as you have signed up for Emperor Divers PADI Instructor
Development Course (PADI IDC) in Sharm, you have expert knowledge
literally at your fingertips. Your PADI Course Director, Steve Prior is
only an email away. You will be encouraged to test your knowledge of
Dive Theory (physics, physiology, equipment, skills and the
environment, RDP and PADI Standards) and be invited to email your exam
answers to him. His feedback and advice will ensure your PADI IDC
preparation is right on track.
