I am ready to start training for technical diving, but with all of the various training agencies around, I am bewildered by the array of courses open to me. Do I do the Tec Deep, Extended Range, Normixic Diver, they all appear relatively similiar, I just dont know where to look.

I know that the 'best' certifications are very subjective, but, as a novice, I would appreciate some advice as to which way I should look to begin my training.
 
I don't think the agency matters. Its more the instructor, all the courses are pretty much the same but a good instructor makes the difference. I'm just not sure how you would find a good instructor.
