GILI TRAWANGAN, INDONESIA - The next PADI Instructor Development Course [http://www.gili-idc.com] (IDC) in the Gili Islands is scheduled to commence on September 10, 2025, offering professional divers an intensive, career-focused training opportunity under the guidance of Platinum PADI Course Director Holly Macleod. This program continues to attract candidates globally, thanks to its reputation for delivering comprehensive instructor-level education in a world-class training environment.
With over 23 years of international dive industry experience, Holly Macleod has shaped the training methodology to reflect both the demands and nuances of real-world diving instruction. Her work across diverse regions including the Philippines, Honduras, Australia, Thailand, and the UK, enhances the global perspective brought into each IDC session. Since establishing a base in the Gili Islands, she has certified over 3,500 PADI Instructors and has personally earned consistent Platinum PADI Course Director status for 13 consecutive years - a recognition awarded by PADI exclusively to individual Course Directors.
Training is conducted at Blue Marlin Dive Gili Trawangan, the first-ever PADI Dive Centre established in the area. With over 30 years of operation, it remains a cornerstone of professional diver education in the region. Candidates undergo a fully immersive learning experience designed to go far beyond the core PADI IDC [http://www.gili-idc.com] syllabus. The program includes scenario-based teaching, problem-solving strategies, and hands-on workshops tailored to help future instructors succeed in varied instructional settings.

* August 6 - August 27, 2025
* September 10 - October 1, 2025
* October 15 - November 5, 2025
* November 19 - December 10, 2025
These sessions are crafted for qualified Divemasters seeking to transition into instructor roles. With each intake limited in size, participants benefit from focused feedback and a close-knit professional environment. Evaluation is conducted directly by Holly Macleod, ensuring consistency in standards and direct mentorship from one of the industry's most accomplished educators.
In addition to core training, the program offers further professional development options. These include Specialty Instructor training, MSDT (Master Scuba Diver Trainer) preparation, IDC Staff Instructor certifications, and Master Instructor mentorship - all designed to support long-term career progression within the scuba diving sector.
The Gili Islands continue to serve as a prominent destination for professional dive training due to the region's diverse marine biodiversity, clear visibility, and supportive infrastructure. The combination of environmental richness and expert-level training makes the program an exceptional gateway into the professional diving industry.
For those seeking to expand their career in scuba instruction, this upcoming session presents a structured, experience-driven opportunity aligned with global PADI standards.
