Commercial Diving Schools provide individuals with the knowledge necessary to understand the physics and physiology of hyperbaric environments as well as hands-on experience in areas such as equipment maintenance and equipment operation. Students perform actual underwater work similar to that done routinely by divers in oilfield operation.
The courses emphasizes safe and efficient work practices and basic occupational competencies, which the student must successfully complete.
Advice you hear a lot from experienced commercial divers: Go to the quickest, least expensive school. Most companies will retrain tenders anyway.
