Once you have 5 PADI Specialty Instructor ratings, all you need is to certify 25 or more students to become a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer (MSDT). You will not only save over 100 $US with our Master Scuba Diver Trainer Program but the MSDT rating brings you closer to becoming an IDC Staff Instructor.

MSDT Prep Program: Specialty Instructor guides and PADI Specialty Course DVD for these core selected specialties: Deep, Navigation, EANx, Wreck, night or Search & Recovery. (Exclude: PADI Specialty Instructor Application fees)

5 Specialty Instructor Training: (excludes PADI application fees, materials)

We have MSDT Packages for IDC Candidates and current PADI Instructors & IDC Staff Instructor Candidates please see IDC Packages and IDC Schedules for further details

Method 1 is taking the Instructor Specialty with a Course Director or method 2 is completing 20 dives as a diver in that specialty then applying directly to PADI. As you can see you can save money and time by completing your courses with a PADI Course Director directly after your IDC.
