Open water scuba instructor course Malaysia
PADI course director SF Chong's PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI) course is a 6-day class designed to prepare qualified candidates to become PADI Instructors. This course is scheduled during the last 5 days of our Instructor Development Course (IDC.) Either the OWSI program or the entire IDC must be completed before attending the PADI Instructor Examination (IE). Combining the Assistant Instructor (AI) course and the OWSI program in to a continuous program makes up the entire IDC.

Scuba instructors certified by other organizations may cross over to PADI by successfully completing the OWSI program and the IE. You will need to arrive the day before to complete the Orientation though so it is a 6-½ day course.

Each segment can be scheduled as a stand-alone course or completed all at one time. You have several training options and flexibility for reaching your professional goals depending on your current certification level, experience level, time restraints, etc.
Options include:

PADI Divemaster may choose just to attend the AI course first and later on

after gaining more experience go on to complete the OWSI program.

PADI Divemaster may attend the full IDC and, upon successful

completion, go on to the IE (as long as all other IE prerequisites are met).

PADI Assistant Instructor may attend the OWSI program only and, upon

successful completion, go on to the IE (as long as all other IE

prerequisites are met).

Scuba Instructor affiliated with other certification organizations may attend

an OWSI program only and, upon successful completion go on to the IE.

Chong's Free IDC Preparation-Study and Prep Workshop is optional but

highly recommended for everyone. Your preparation is the key to success.

Please consult Chong for advice. Chong's advice will be based on your attitude, experience, level of dive knowledge, diving ability, overall understanding of the dive market and consumer attitudes, and your ability to grasp new concepts through independent study. Remedial training, additional IDC curriculum presentations, or full IDC with or without the Pre-study and preparation workshop may be advised.
