So my friend from highschool got around to adding me on skype randomly and we had a short conversation.
He mentioned that he was getting certified in Hawaii.
I thought, "Great! must be a short class though"
Well curiosity got the better of me, so I asked him. He replied "3 days"
O_O
I didn't really have the heart to bash the course, I don't even know what resort or agency he's taking it from, let alone the instructor teaching it.
But really, what can I say without getting making him feel like I'm trying to bring him down?
Is 3 days really enough? Even for a vacation diver? (which I'm pretty sure is the category he'd fall into)
My friend's a pretty carefree guy and really laid back.
I told him he should get a book to study up a bit after completing the course, but he just replied with a comment that I'd rather not quote for fear of being moderated
Anyways I just spewing thoughts on the board late at night.
What's your opinions on courses like these?
Any experiences taking a course like this?
