Materials that are required by PADI for the IDC / IE
It is a requirement with all PADI Courses that you must have in your possession a personal set of materials for study and use during the course and for reference afterward. Our Professional Courses do not include these materials in with the Course Price. You might have some of these already or prefer to purchase them from your home country so you can do some independent studying before the course starts, please let us know which you require and we will get them for you at discounted prices.This includes current versions of the required PADI Instructor materials as well as course materials from the other PADI core courses.
