Valid "C" card

[luvx77x8o4]

Hi everyone, I new to the sport. I just completed my OW and going into AOW. Im looking into some dive locations and it says I need a valid "C" card. What does this mean? Can I dive with OW training?

Thanks

Yes. A C card is a certification card. This means any OW or higher card from any recognized training agency.

yup, as partridge explained

a "c-card" almost always means a certification card for an Open Water course,
issued by a recognized agency (such as PADI, NAUI, etc.)

sometimes in cave diving they will ask for a "c-card" and what they mean
is a cave certification card (not the OW card), but this should be obvious in context
