Interested in learning diving?

Question on Diving Jobs.?

• what diving schools will tech these jobs i'm interested in learning: Saturation diving diving welder/cutter/salvage one atmosphere suit diving dive medic apart from specialized training at the naval diving academy, I can't find a school that trains in Atmosphere Suits (like the WASP, SPIDER, Hardsuit, etc.) If I went through naval school, I would be too old by the end of all the training to work well in the commercial fields, which is where the money is and where the big jobs are. seriously, if I did the navy, then by the time I have learned everything on my list, I would be too old to safely Sat dive, which is where the big money is. does anyone know of a dive school that teaches that stuff? I'm currently training for weld certification, and diver welder/cutter/salvage is generally training to use already learned skills underwater. I just can't find a school that offers Saturation Diving and a school that offers One Atmosphere training. please help! thanks.

• Answer:

  Well, I don't have any answers for the sat diving, but dive medicine can be pursued at some local community colleges. You will wan to look for Dive Medical Tech. The curriculum is similiar to EMT/paramedic training but some aspects will emphasize dive related medicine and how to operate in and out of the dive chamber. 5 years ago, hyperbaric medicine was on gaining a lot of attention in sports medicine. I have no idea if its panned out. Hope this helps
