When choosing a certifying agency - or perhaps according to your demographic location, a local dive shop where you can’t control who they certify through - which of the following questions would you consider most important to you?

[Choose #5] None of the above? I guess I’m weird but I know the classes I want, who I want them through, and what I expect to learn. I’m currently looking at driving 7 hours and taking a week off of work for a specific class from a specific dive shop.
