I would like to know what the general diving public thinks about crossing agencies for training? Example: PADI OW/AOW ---> NAUI Nitrox ---> DIR Fundamentals, etc.
Thinking as an instructor, which I am not, I may possibly evaluate a diver's logbook with credentials from multiple agencies as either someone who either is a) a diver that doesn't do very well so he must switch shops regularly or b) a diver who wants a plethora of knowledge from various different philosophies or possibly a combination on the two. I wouldn't know what to do if I met a dive buddy with cards from 5 different agencies.
Peace,
Greg
