I have been following a few threads on DM training. So far I am only OW certified. Scheduled to do AOW in June. I feel that I want to to DM and possibly instructor eventually.
I saw an add in SCUBA Diving for a school called prodive. They offer what looks like intensive training in a short period of time.
They offer for example:
1. PADI Emergency First Responder
1 Day
2. PADI Rescue Diver
4 Days
3. DAN & PADI O2 Provider
½ Day
3. PADI Divemaster
9½ Days
4. PADI Enriched Air Diver (Nitrox)
1 Day
All this can be completed in two weeks, I asume going to class full time.
Has anyone done their classes? If so what do you think?
What is the opinion of the experienced DMs on the list as to this kind of training?
From what I read in other threads the opinion is that DM takes time and dedication, can this be achieved in 10 days?
I am not looking for an easy way out, I just live in a diving limited area, and it might take quite awhile to get all the classes. As my LDS only does a few AOW and rescue divers a year, and maybe one DM a year if there is enough people.
Thanks for your input
