What’s an IE?
An Instructor Examination (IE) is a two-day evaluative program that tests an instructor candidate’s teaching ability, dive theory knowledge, skill level, understanding of the PADI System, and attitude and professionalism. PADI Instructor Examinations (IEs) are standardized and conducted by specially trained PADI Instructor Examiners. The (IE) location, testing environment and examination sessions are organized to be as objective as possible to fairly and consistently evaluate a candidate’s abilities. Only those who meet the Instructor Examination (IE) performance requirements earn the respected PADI Instructor certification. There is a fee for attending an Instructor Examination (IE).
