Although PADI training standards differ from those formerly prevalent in the United Kingdom under the BSAC system, PADI training standards are consistent with World Recreational Scuba Training Council standards.
Ačkoli se standardy PADI liší od převažujících systémů ve Velké Británii pod BSAC systémem, tréninkové standardy PADI jsou shodné s World Recreational Scuba Training Council.
