PADI TEAM There is a number of reasons to become a scuba instructor: you get paid to dive, you meet amazing people, etc. But that’s not what text is about. This slide is about the myths, misconceptions, and misunderstandings that help people to take their passion for scuba diving to successive level. Read on to find out the reality about becoming a scuba instructor and the PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC). www.oceanenterprises.com
MYTH #1 You Need an Encyclopedic Knowledge of Scuba Diving
1
Some know fascinating details about their local wrecks. These skills are nice to possess, but they aren’t necessary to show someone how to scuba dive. In the PADI IDC, you’ll learn how to work with students, handle various problems, and explain concepts like buoyancy during a way that’s easy to grasp.

MYTH #2 It Takes a Long Time to Become a Scuba Instructor
If you’re already a PADI Divemaster or hold a leadership-level certification with another training agency, you can become a PADI Instructor in about 11 days. Or, you'll complete your training gradually over a series of weekends. • First, you’ll need 10-12 hours to finish your online training (IDC eLearning®). • Next, you’ll spend minimum of 6 days working along with your PADI Course Director(s) practicing teaching presentations, completing workshops, and perfecting your dive skills. www.oceanenterprises.com
MYTH #3 It Costs a lot of money to Become a Scuba Instructor
We ran the numbers and therefore the average cost to become a scuba instructor is about an equivalent as becoming a water sports instructor or 200-hour yoga instructor. An average PADI Instructor course is really less costly than an average ski or snowboarding instructor course.
