		<description>It seems like a no brainer...you did well during your training so you go diving to build your experience or you struggled with a skill(s) so you get more supervised training.  My observation is that this isn't communicated by dive instructors.  But, maybe that comes with experience for instructors too.</description>

		<description>Great advice, 
I´ll definitely look into dive resorts; I had no idea you could dive so much on dive vacations. I´m actually quite lucky as I will move to Australia soon and will have quick access to heaps of dive sites. 
All I have to do is find an appropriate dive club. 
I hope one day to gain enough experience and confidence so that I can get on a liveabroad and dive the Tubbataha reef!

I wish the BoyScouts of America would create and advance scuba diving merit badge, this would definitely motivate scout divers to build experience.</description>
