Assistant Instuctor course

[chiara]

I'm starting my Assistant Instructor course at my local dive club in mid-February.

This won't be followed immediately by IDC, which I hope to be able to attend in January 2006 as a very personal present to myself for my 40th birthday.

As it was outlined last night by the two Instructors who are combinedly going to teach me and the other candidate (both of us girls), this will consist first by five consecutive Sundays full day theory sessions plus of course the technique review in the pool every Wednesday.

We were told we need the Instructor's Manual and the Candidate Instructor's workbook (which I both already possess).

Any advice?

If so, also dig out your Encyclopedia of Diving and the workbook to bone up on physics and physiology. You'll be taking tests in these as well as equipment, the environment, etc.

Great to hear that you're getting started on AI. If all things hold true to form, get ready for some of the silliest, strangest, most exaggerated water skill demonstrations that you've ever seen.:scuba:
