I'm a bit in dubio about depth at which open water tests are taken in my diving organisation.
So I would like to know at which depths open water tests are taken for your organisation. Certification level Rescuediver, Divemaster, Assistant Instructor. Are all open water tests for all certification levels done at same depth? What are the depths those tests are taken?
Some of the scenarios in our course deal with rescue attempts, ascends, out of air simulations and ooa ascends from 130 feet. I would like to get a bit of a perspective on how other organisations arrange this, both now and in the past. At 130 feet the reward (simulation, training) vs risk aspect is getting quite narrow imo.
Cheers,
