CDTC Prep is a personalised preparation programme rather than an official standardised PADI course. It supports suitably qualified Master Instructors as they organise evidence, sharpen evaluation skills and prepare for the demands of selection and training.
Selection for the official PADI Course Director Training Course is competitive and controlled by PADI. Preparation cannot guarantee acceptance.
