Hey all,
I just finished up my open water cert (with padi). I am a certified lifeguard and a first aid/cpr instructor with the red cross so logically I'm quite interested in doing a rescue diver course. I gather NAUI does not require advanced open water before rescue diver but PADI does. I don't want to turn this into another NAUI vs PADI debate, I'm just wondering what folks sentiments are on the best order to do this in. Advanced open water first then rescue, or rescue then advanced open water?
thanks!
