PADI Instructor certification courses

[GDI]

Thanks GDI...I'll look into Florida and see what I can find. Any chance you know of specific spots that run the courses?

You can od it on-line these day I personally like the in-class method as I get interaction with others

Try this there are others: IDC

Even if I could get the IDC completed right away, say in Florida, and then do the IE later this spring maybe in Halifax it would work? I don't think the IE has to be completed immediately following the IDC?

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions....I'll definitely look into this.

I believe you have 12mo to complete the IE.

We've got an IE Mar 21/22 here in the Phoenix, AZ area. One day in Mesa AZ and the 2nd at our local Lake Pleasant.

Here's a list of shops that could be doing an IDC before then but I don't know of any that are next week?

Any in Chandler, Glendale, Goodyear, Phoenix, Mesa, Queen Creek, Scottsdale or Tempe are potential options. Tucson is a 2 hour drive also in case one of those shops is. The Sport Chalet's listed all have pools but they don't always seem to know what their other stores across the valley are doing so maybe check a couple since their instructors are private independents. My best guess is that if anyone is doing an IDC in prep for the IE now it's likely Academy of Scuba - Sample IDC Agenda.

To shorten your search these are shops that aren't PADI or don't offer the IDC:

Scubapros of AZ
El Mar Diving
LP Scuba
Inland Water
Phoenix Scuba
