Two other points to address - last spring two BCU coaches sat down with
Randy at a course here in Washington and compared notes and found the two
systems had a lot in common. Also, the ACA is introducing "modules" now
that one can add-on to a cert - such as sufing, etc. This addresses
regional differences in needs and conditions.

I think several instructors in the Great Lakes area have both ACA and BCU   
certification, and are using what they consider to be the best features
of each program. So that is another source of cross-fertilization.
