I would have posted this in "Going Pro" but I am not enrolled in any professional courses, so I can't.
I was wondering what people thought of course like this:
http://www.keysidc.com/pkgCoursePriceListing.php
23 days and $4200 to take you all the way from OW to Instructor.
I suspect no one here will think this is a good idea because you would end up being an instructor with about 30 dives. However, it seems like a good way to get in a ton of instruction in a short time. You could round it out with some more practical dives before actually starting instruction.
I'm interested in hearing opinions on this. For the dive shop owners, would you hire someone who was qualified thought a course like this, without a lot of dives under their belt?
