Hmmm...... as I understand it you could go directly to an IDC and qualify as a PADI instructor if you're already a BSAC instructor. Have you considered that?

Although the theory exams cover the same stuff in both the DM exams and IDC and you'd have to work on those a bit (IE learn PADI speak and that air is 21% O2 rather than 20%) I'd imagine you'd be more useful to dive centres as an Instructor than a DM.

Just a thought.
