Is PADI or RAID better?
The exit standards for the RAID Advanced 35 are a bit higher than the PADI AOW so, theoretically, you should get a better skill foundation from the RAID course if both are taught only to standard.
How long does raid certification last?
You can choose any RAID Registered Dive Centre for your in water training. From the time I register until I get certified, how long do I have? 6 months.
What is the maximum depth you can dive to on your Open Water 20 second Open Water dive?
1 hour logged underwater in Open Water. Upon completion of the RAID Scuba Diver program you will receive a electronic certification indicating your completion of the course. This will allow you to dive to a maximum depth of 12 metres/40ft with a dive professional across many parts of the world.
