It isn't written by PADI, just approved by them. therefore, it is a card for doing something which there are several technical instructors already doing.

Just to light the blue touch paper here.... if a technical instructor who was also a PADI instructor had done the same, merely written down and rebadged an 'introduction to twinsets' course, got it approved by PADI would you feel the same?

I never did an intro formally, so i don't know the answer to this, but is there a cert at the end of the 'introduction to twinsets'? This one may just appeal to those who like the card.
