If you are planning on becoming a PADI Instructor or PADI IDC Staff Instructor, you are also required to be an EFR Instructor.

We offer regularly scheduled EFR Instructor courses as part of our PADI IDCs and can also offer them on request, one-on-one. Even if you are not doing your PADI IDC with us, why not think about doing this with us in advance to remove some of the stress and workload during the IDC?

Anyone can become EFR certified or an EFR Instructor, it is not even required to be a diver. These courses teach first aid and CPR skills that are valuable for everyone on the planet.
