[Choose #4] They are the only agency I have delt with so far.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] Because they have everything and are everywhere. NAUI was once the only one. Many of my instructors were NAUI certified and switched to PADI along the way. They are all trying to make money with repeat business. PADI seems to do that very well.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] Put. another. dollar. In... Great organization and training criteria ! Good or bad depends on the instructor.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] Instructors are more critical to dive training than the agency they represent.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] I’ve never had a bad experience...Yet.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] I don’t adhere to the "best" agency, rather the best instructor, but chose PADI because all of my certs are PADI. That being said I have reported more than one PADI instructor for not being a good instructor and doing things that were dangerous.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] I have PADI, NAUI, and SSI certifications.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] Why isnt SSI listed? Just Curious. But I think it all boils down to who your instructor is and what you put into it.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] I only chose PADI because all my certs are with them. However, as stated before, Agency isn’t near as important as instructor. If you find an instructor you click with, you go with them regardless of Agency affiliation.
|
|
|
[Choose #2] THE BEST AGENCY IS NOT IMPORTANT. THE BEST INSTRUCTOR IS. I PERSONALLY WENT NAUI BECUASE MY INSTRUCTOR WAS THE MOST QUALIFIED. HIS NAME IS BILL RIVERS AND CAN BE FOUND ON THE NAUI INSTRUCTOR LIST.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] Best is a relative term. But I choose PADI because they are currently the largest.
|
|
|
[Choose #2] I didn’t vote, but PADI as an agency is nothing but a leach.
|
|
|
[Choose #2] Because the staff at my local shop are amazing.
|
|
|
[Choose #4] Only because it is more widely recognized. Makes it nice and easy to sign up for dives while on vacation.
