Aquatron run PADI dive courses but my understanding is that nothing is happening at all at the moment.
I’m a member of a Scotsac diving club in Glasgow and we aren’t doing any training. We aren’t sure when it might be possible to again based on social distancing guidelines. Our training pool isn’t open at the moment either. I’d say don’t get your hopes up to do it before Sept and if you manage to get away to just pay for it and do it in the warmer water.
I did my initial Scotsac qualification in my diving club then did the PADI advanced in Australia before crossing over to Scotsac Sport diver. If you do your qualification with PADI in scotland (so in a dry suit) and then want to join a Scottish club when you get back there’s a small amount of cross over training you’ll need to do. If you do PADI while your away and want to join a Scotsac club or dive in Scotland with PADI you’ll have to do some dry suit training.
Basically all the qualifications are broadly comparable PADI/Scotsac/bsac but there are some differences and that’s what the crossover training is so cover. |
