In order to provide the aspiring Open Water Instructor with the correct didactic knowledge, insight and attitude, IDD has developed an Instructor Training Course (ITC). In the ITC you will learn how to deal with the modular teaching system and various components will be addressed that will lead to becoming a professional instructor.
