There are a number of scuba and related organizations around the world. Most of them have high standards and provide comprehensive diver training. Is there enough difference that it really matters which on you are certified through?<\/p>\n

The agencies around the world pretty much meet the same basic standard for open water scuba instruction. Open water courses include a syllabus of diving theory (physics, physiology, and so on) along with practical skills. Classroom or homework supports the student whether a rookie or experienced diver who is looking for more.<\/p>\n

Some agencies allow leave the number of lecture hours and pool sessions at the instructor\u2019s discretion. Also, it is not uncommon to see some instructors exceed an agency\u2019s minimum standards. In my humble opinion being restricted to teach just the minimum, no more, no less especially when the instructor is a seasons diver is cutting short the exposure one may experience.<\/p>\n

Regardless of which organization you choose, what is important is the instructor<\/strong>. It is the instructor who makes majority of the difference<\/span>, not the agency and its standards. To help Agencies from time to time will send our surveys to students. It helps the agency know whether the instructor has performed needed skills as well as the quality of instruction. It is a way for agency to monitor and maintain not only control their instructors with quality assurance programs, but also get a better picture of how to do better.<\/p>\n

Does it matter which agency trains you?\u00a0 The bottom line is, it is the instructor who makes the difference, not the agency<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
