the PADI OW1 course takes 4 weekend days, usually accomplished over two separate weekends.
the PADI AOW course (now re-christened as Adventure Diving apparently - i dont know why it was renamed) takes two weekend days. You normally spend the first day doing two nav dives, and that evening you do a night dive. You normally spend the second day on a dive boat doing two deep dives (around 100 fsw on air).
so I agree with CalDiver, who has stipulated that it is unlikely that both classes would be run together.
the only exception that I could think about would be at a scuba resort, possibly. even that is unlikely, however.
