Instructor course question

[Max2018]

My shop is in need of instructors at the moment, usually there are more than enough but we haven’t been running our IDC’s as often, as we prefer to train “in house”, but now we are short . So there are opportunities but unless you are lucky or willing to travel, full time work in Canada is rare.

Hi,

I am actually in Laos at the moment...and looking for anywhere outside Canada. sorry for the confusion of showing being in Canada on my profile...just created this account...where is your shop?

Thx for reply...what kind of wage is it out there to teach courses for recreational? I was in Bella Coola last summer (from east coast) and was going to go take my commercial to go dive for sea urchins but there was a big decline in underwater construction and there was too much competition from more experienced divers so I backed out...love diving...just trying to find a way somewhere somehow...cheers

You may want to check out Rich Coast Diving in Costa Rica. They run PADI IDCs regularly and also do the intern thing; good group there and location is nice too, right at the beach and only a couple of easy hours to zip lines and rafting inland.

Join us for fun dives, courses, do the internship Divemaster in Costa Rica
