Learning to "Relax"
As we get ready for our next PADI IDC in Sharm, we have some new materials designed to make candidates even more prepared for their PADI instructors Exam. A long long time ago, we recognised that a lot of people get “Exam Nerves” and sometimes struggled with the Theory exams or Standards exams.
We responded way back then with our “Distance Learning” Preparation course. This gave candidates loads of confidence by making sure that they were fully “Up to Speed” with theory and standards even before the start of their Instructor Development Course.
This solved the problem for the vast majority of people, but we still found that a few people got very nervous on the day of the Exam. We have now developed a brand new set of 4 “Quick Review” Papers that candidates can choose to take during their IDC. Each paper should only take approx 15 mins to take. The reviews are not designed to refresh or revise the content, but are designed to get people used to sitting down and answering test papers. We are hoping that by using these short quizes, candidates will find the Exam a more familair place to be and be able to relax during the process.
The next IDC in Sharm el Sheikh will be the first time that we will try this out! Wish the guys luck!
