Why would anyone care about presenting additional material to students? That would have to be quite inappropriate to cause objection.
Of course I'm talking about skills/dives. Again, if a student has done AOW with an instructor, they can get credit for deep dive #1. I teach through a shop, and they pay for a 4 dive class. I'm simply trying to give them the full value for what they pay. If I was teaching independently, I would discount the course, but that isn't my call. I find it disappointing that there cannot even be a conversation with PADI about what skills they would agree would be appropriate. Fortunately, I won't be teaching that format anymore, so now it is a non-issue.
