PADI Course Director Update for 2010 in Phuket, Thailand with PADI Course Director Camille Lemmens

PADI Course Director Update 2010

After the PADI Course Director Update in April in Bangkok earlier this year, you wouldn't expect another CD update for another two years. Well, wrong. There's another compulsory PADI Course Director update scheduled for next year but surprisingly, PADI Asia Pacific arranged for an early date for this required update, so two days ago I found myself in Phuket for the 2010 update.

Although it was arranged on relatively short notice, it was well attended, with over 40 attendants and it had some good and interesting changes coming up for the new IDC curriculum.

All attendants will receive the exciting new materials early next year and once they're in the mail box I will start with presenting the new format IDC's.

The update was expertly presented by Colin Melrose, who presented the 2009 update in Bangkok earlier this year and by Mike Holme, who can be seen together with me in the picture above.

It's going to be an exciting 2010 for IDC's!
