Extended Prep (optional)

For a few of our IDCs we have added 7-14 days of Prep, and this is purely optional.

Make sure you are ready! We find that frequently candidates have not had much experience with helping on courses as a DM and so we are offering this Extended Prep to help provide this experience. It is run by Restuning, our Indonesian Master Instructor and IDC Manager, and she will also help with anything else that is needed to get you ready (need any skills brushing up?). We originally started this specially for local Indonesian IDC candidates, but we think it could be valuable to anyone and so its open to all of our IDC candidates!!
