Hello world.
In this life there are always alternatives. Thats something human, I suppose. Linux is my favorite example. Linux, GNU, and all the open source software floating around. Photoshop, adobe, microsoft office, and all proprietary software have their counterparts.
Now, in diving.
Is there something like an "open source" alternative to all the money leeching agencies? Is there an agency which focuses in teaching more than in earning money?
I really don't know, and I come here to ask, but it would be nice, wouldn't it? An agency so relaxed that just provides a way to acknowledge your abilities, without having to charge you every single micro course they provide.
Diving gear is expensive as is, why make diving more unreachable with (knoledge wise) useless certifications?
Maybe I'm picturing an utopia-type agency, a non-profit diving organization.
So, is there? An agency like such?
