Special IE option for CDC's
Candidates enrolled in five pre-and/or post-IDC courses (Pre-study, EFRI, Instructor Specialties etc.) OR candidates of a six-week career development program who successfully complete an IDC, conducted by a CDC center, may attend an IE if they have been certified divers for at least six months, have logged 60 dives and are certified Assistant Instructors (the AI course is now an integrated part of the IDC).
