| PADI IDC Indonesia | Instructor Development Course Gili | Oceans 5 Gili Air |
If you have ever dreamed of turning your passion for diving into a professional career, now is the moment to take action. Oceans 5 Gili Air—one of Indonesia’s most respected PADI Career Development Centres—has just two final spots available for its upcoming PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) starting October 15th. This is not just another IDC. This is your opportunity to train in a marine park, learn from a visionary Course Director, and become more than just an instructor—become an ocean ambassador.
Led by PADI Course Director Waz, this 20-day IDC is designed not to simply prepare you to pass the Instructor Examination, but to shape you into a confident, environmentally aware diving professional who can succeed anywhere in the world.
Why Choose Oceans 5 Gili Air for Your IDC?
There are countless IDCs across Southeast Asia—but Oceans 5 does things differently.
While many PADI centers focus on ticking off the minimum curriculum requirements, Oceans 5’s philosophy goes far beyond exam preparation.
Here, the program is designed around the candidates, not the Course Director.
No rigid “one-size-fits-all” system. No mock IE where you simply repeat presentation formats like a robot. No shortcuts.
Instead:
✅ You will practice until you understand, not until the clock runs out.
✅ You will learn how to TEACH, not just how to perform skills.
✅ You will master control, problem-solving, and real student situations—not scripted exercises.
Most importantly: You will be trained to become the kind of instructor who is respected not only by students, but by the ocean itself.
Environmental Awareness at the Heart of the IDC
Oceans 5 Gili Air is located within Gili Matra Marine Park, one of the Top 10 marine parks in Indonesia. This is not just a marketing slogan—it comes with responsibility.
Every dive professional working in a marine park must understand:
You don’t touch coral.
You don’t ride turtles.
You don’t harass marine life for photographs or entertainment.
You don’t excuse bad habits because “that’s how everyone does it here.”
Unfortunately, far too many newly certified instructors from traditional IDCs don’t understand these principles. They may know how to perform a rescue in the pool—but don’t know how to protect a fragile reef. They can repeat PADI standards—but can’t lead by example underwater.
At Oceans 5, this stops here.
This IDC trains instructors who understand both education and conservation. The goal is clear: Create instructors who not only teach skills—but deliver values.
What Makes This IDC Different?
Here are the key features that set Oceans 5 apart from other IDCs in Indonesia, Thailand, or Malaysia:
1. Environmental Integration in Every Module
Every teaching scenario—from briefings to skill demonstrations—is delivered with eco-awareness built in. Whether you’re discussing buoyancy or marine life interactions, you will be trained to include conservation messaging naturally and confidently.
2. No Touching Policy: The Oceans 5 Standard
From Day 1, all IDC candidates must maintain perfect buoyancy during all training dives. Kneeling on the sand or touching the bottom is not accepted—not for instructors, not for candidates, not for students. This is how real professionals dive.
3. Train for the World, Not Just the Gili Islands
Some IDCs train candidates only for calm, shallow, tropical teaching conditions. Oceans 5 prepares you for cold water, strong currents, low visibility, or challenging students. You will learn adaptable teaching techniques that will serve you whether you choose to teach in Bali, Komodo, Egypt, Thailand, Mexico, or the Maldives.
4. Marketing & Career Development Workshops
More and more instructors struggle not because of lack of diving skills—but because they don’t know how to present themselves professionally. At Oceans 5, candidates learn:
How to use AI tools for creating dive course posts, websites, and CVs
How to market yourself without being salesy
How to become an independent, confident professional
5. Realistic Rescue Training — Not the Bare Minimum
Many IDCs only practice the handful of rescue skills that appear in the Instructor Examination. At Oceans 5, you will learn ALL rescue course skills—but more importantly, you will learn how to TEACH them as an instructor.
Why Marine Park Education Matters More Than Ever
In recent months, the Gili Matra Marine Park has been under pressure. Increased tourism, illegal structures on beaches, irresponsible snorkeling tours, and lack of awareness are threatening its fragile ecosystems.
As diving professionals, we are not just employees of a dive shop—we are guardians of the ocean.
When more marine parks are established worldwide, the demand for environmentally trained instructors will skyrocket. Resorts, conservation centers, and eco-tourism operators are searching for professionals who can uphold marine park ethics—not instructors who allow students to kneel on coral or chase turtles for GoPro footage.
This IDC ensures you graduate with values, not just a certification number.
What Happens After the IDC?
Upon successful completion of the IDC and Instructor Examination, Oceans 5 also offers a free Instructor Internship—a chance to team-teach real PADI courses under the guidance of experienced instructors.
You can also take additional Instructor Specialties, such as:
Enriched Air (Nitrox) Instructor
Deep Diver Instructor
Drift Diver Instructor
Sidemount Instructor
Search and Recovery
Night Diver Instructor
Underwater Naturalist
Emergency Oxygen Provider Instructor
Self-Reliant Diver
Your journey doesn’t end after your IE—it begins.
Why You Should Take One of the Last Two Spots
If you are reading this and still hesitating, ask yourself:
Do I want to be just another instructor—or a respected one?
Do I want to teach diving—or inspire divers?
Do I want to pass an exam—or start a meaningful career?
Because that’s the real difference.
Anyone can pass the Instructor Examination with enough repetition. But not everyone becomes a role model in the diving community.
At Oceans 5 Gili Air:
🌊 We don’t just certify instructors. We build leaders.
🌊 We don’t create followers. We create protectors.
🌊 We don’t teach you how to kneel. We teach you how to fly.
Final Call — Your Ocean Career Starts Now
The October 15th IDC is almost full.
Only two candidates will get the chance to join this intake.
