No glibs because inquiring mind does want to know.
Has anybody gone through OW training, say, 20-years ago, then recently attended same training from the same agency? I really like to know how much the current training regimentations had laxed in standards as opposed to back then. PADI/NAUI/SSI/LA County/BSAC then versus the same agencies nowadays.
I have kids that work for me who take scuba classes as PE classes in college and their experiences also varied widely. One claimed that he did rescue training, Nitrox, no mask underwater drill, lots of freediving activities. The others claim they did the same as basic OW for PADI/NAUI/SSI.
