If you are an active Dive Master and have been contemplating pursuing your IDC, then here is a sign! Paul, our British student, who was a part of our IDC batch in SriLanka last year, shares his experience with the world. Read below:

"My IDC was a mix of hard work, fun, diving and good relationships, with I believe are the core of the diving industry. Apart from a great course director, he is also a friend who always helps (even after the IDC/IE) and very professional to work with. I would highly recommend doing your IDC with Mark Soworka, extremely knowledgeable and the best at transferring it, the wealth of experience and leadership inside this person guarantees the development of real professionals. Professionalism + Fun = Mark Soworka" ~ Paul Northerndivers Cunningham, IDC student, SriLanka, Dive-Careers.

Q. What was the best part about your instructor training?

A. Mark Sowoka and his vast knowledge/experience and willing to share with all involved. He made everyone feel comfortable with the way he delivers the content with fun/laugher but ensuring everyone understands.

Q. What convinced you to do your instructor training with us?

A. I had read a lot of reviews and wanted to get more than just a passed IE.

Q. What was the weakest part of your IDC and why? Also please suggest how we can improve.

A. None.......covered all aspects of what I was expecting from the IDC/IE to ensure I was ready to teach at the highest level after training.

Q. Would you recommend us to friends and why?

A. Yes, if you want the most experienced CD that is more than happy to go through the finer details of coursework/practical demonstrations to ensure it's embedded.

Q. Where did you hear about us for your instructor training course?

A. I did a lot of research before choosing Dive Careers and Mark Soworka.
