I feel that the natural progression from a recreational diver on Enriched Air (Nitrox) moving towards rebreathers, I should go through the technical diving route before going onto rebreathers, my question is, can anyone give me an unbiased overview of the various courses (DSAT, TDI & IANTD) and what may be best for someone who is looking to increase his skills in the field of technical diving with the ultimate aim of going rebreather.
Since you have decided to go for CC diving then I don't see the point in further training on OC. The important thing is to find a good instructor, what agency he is "working for" is less important. I am sure you can get help to find a good instructor in your area from the members of this site.
