One of the reasons for posting was to gauge your reactions to the number of dives they have done and see if there was a set standard for enrolling on a Rebreather course.. The one with 30 dives is only now completing her advanced padi course with me and going on how she uses a compass id say she will struggle...
Is the number of dives a big deal? I would expect the emphasis to be on skills and knowledge instead. Since you're diving with one of them, you can easily gauge the ability but I have dived with people who have ten times my number of dives but still aren't very good at bouyancy control, situational awareness or independent thinking.
