Master Instructor Lester is constantly assisting PADI Course Director Azman Sulaiman in his IDC Programs. Learning from the master, the latest trends and teaching standards, Orpheus Dive is able to conduct a systematic and structured PADI Assistant Instructor program, to ensure candidates are well prepared for the the future IDC Program.
