Prepare for Success in Your PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC)

Becoming a PADI Instructor is a life-changing step, but success depends on preparation. At Oxybulles Diving Rawai, we offer tailor-made IDC preparation workshops to give you the confidence, knowledge, and skills needed before you start your Instructor Development Course in Phuket. 

Led by Alain Barrat, a Swiss PADI Course Director & EFR Instructor Trainer with over 25 years of experience, our workshops help you review theory, refresh essential diving skills, and improve your teaching techniques so that you begin your IDC fully prepared.
 

Why Join an IDC Prep Workshop?

The PADI IDC is an intense program. Arriving well-prepared means you can focus on learning how to become the best instructor possible, rather than struggling to catch up. Our workshops give you:

  • 📘 Theory Review – Physics, physiology, decompression theory, dive tables, and eRDPML practice.

  • 🤿 Skill Practice – Master demonstration-quality confined water skills, buoyancy, and rescue techniques.

  • 🧑‍🏫 Teaching Techniques – Guidance on how to structure prescriptive teaching presentations.

  • 💻 Flexible Learning – Choose between online sessions (Zoom/Discord) or in-person workshops in Phuket.

  • 🌍 Personalized Coaching – Small group or one-on-one training adapted to your level.

Who Can Benefit?

Our IDC prep workshops are designed for:

  • Divemasters planning to take the IDC in Phuket.

  • Candidates who completed their Divemaster some time ago and need a refresher.

  • Divers who want extra confidence in their theory and water skills before professional training.

How It Works

  • Online Prep – Interactive sessions covering dive theory, standards, and exam-style questions.

  • On-Site Prep in Phuket – 1–3 days of practice in the pool and classroom before your IDC.

  • Customizable Content – Focus on your weak points and reinforce your strengths.


Why Train with Alain Barrat?

Alain is not only an experienced PADI Course Director & EFR Instructor Trainer but also a mentor who has been preparing and certifying dive professionals for over two decades in Phuket. His method combines professional rigor, clear explanations, and a friendly approach, helping hundreds of instructors succeed in their IDC and IE (Instructor Exam).​
