NAUI is that everywhere or only certain states - countries??? I have never heard of them just PADI..
NAUI is really the original scuba certification agency going back to 1959. I think YMCA is a bit older than that. PADI was an off-shoot of NAUI with several members leaving to form PADI.
Besides teaching philosophies, the big difference is that PADI is a "for profit" agency. They live to make money. NAUI on the otherhand is a "not for profit" agency who makes their money off member dues.
