Instructor Development Course & IE -- March 2007

Aquanauts Dive Centre's celebrated the certification of three new PADI Instructors from the March 2007 Instructor Exam, but while the scores and performance of the interns met Aquanauts traditionally high standards, these interns were anything but ordinary.

One took 13 months to complete his training, another did it in just two and the third not only did his a month faster than normal, but lost nearly a month to an eye infection during his internship.

Lord David Anthony Morrison of Kensington and Chelsea, who goes by the moniker "Mo," worked on his training in one-month bouts every three months due to his work schedule. Jonathan Rhind, a Brit living in Span, had only two months off from his job and took only two days off during his entire internship to make it to OWSI. American Cory Cannon survived Hurricane Katrina, but nearly got knocked out of the internship by severe conjunctivitis. All of them not only overcame their challenges, but posted perfect scores throughout much of the exam and high 4's the rest of the time.

This trio is just the latest class of interns who benefited from Aquanauts' Personalized Training System, which guarantees individual instruction and has resulted in class after class of IE candidates who score top marks. See the results of previous exams below.
