Led by our in-house Course Director James Wilkinson, the IDC Staff Instructor Course takes you into the world of the Instructor Trainer. As well as a chance to train Assistant Instructors many people who take the Staff course find it a very useful, non-pressured refresher of the IDC.

We run a number of IDCs each year in both the UK and in Sharm El Sheikh therefore there are plenty of chances of working with real instructor candidates.

Duration: Either 2-3 days as a stand alone course, or around 10 days as a full audit of an IDC.
