Training from other recognized agencies such as NAUI, SSI, YMCA and BSAC can count towards your certification.

If you are an Instructor from a recoginzed certification agency, then you may be considered an equivalent DM in the PADI heirarchy and eligible to attend a PADI Instructor Development Course IDC.

The criteria for accepting other agency certifications is not difficult and usually requires nothing more than proof of certification.
