Come to Kenya and Become a Diving Instructor with Award-Winning CD Mark Slingo

Become a PADI Instructor by taking your PADI Instructor Development Course (PADI IDC) in Kenya. We teach the PADI IDC to the 2019 updated curriculum.

This incorporates PADI eLearning. Thus enabling you to complete many of the presentations before arrival at the IDC.

The IDC is conducted by Award-Winning PADI Course Director Mark Slingo and a team of PADI IDC Staff Instructors.

The program lasts 8-16 days depending on the style you wish to do.

When you are not on the IDC you can go diving. When it comes to scuba diving coral reefs, Kenya is up there with the best of them.

Ocean Tribe’s dive base in Diani Beach is located on one of the world’s top 10-rated beaches.

Diani is consistently rated the best beach in Africa. The palm tree-lined white powder sands run down to azure waters, where the fringing coral reefs can be found only 100m offshore.

The Ocean Tribe PADI Instructor Development Course incorporates the Assistant Instructor Course and the Open Water Scuba Instructor Course.

The whole program takes place over 8-16 days, followed by a 2-day instructor exam, conducted by an incoming PADI Instructor Examiner.
