For a cost of 75% less you can attend Santa Barbara City College Marine Technology Training Course and get the best training in the industry plus SBCC is well stocked with California girls.

Sorry Francisco but a puppy mill is a puppy mill operating to generate a profit and not an education.

Thanks for the comment Fred.  To my understanding SBCC does not offer underwater specialties such as NDT or DMT.  To be more marketable as a commercial diver, you would have to seek these certifications outside of SBCC, which would be a substantial additional expense for the student.  Like I said, just trying to raise awareness of different commercial diving educational options.  As always, National University remains a non-profit organization.

You still can't GUARANTEEe any student employment after graduation. ( There are Federal laws against that). No matter how many "Job Posts" are sent to your school.

There are at least 1000 real divers sitting home already applied by the time you get the post.

Hello Falloonoski,

I am sorry to hear that there was some miss communication with your phone conversation.  To clarify, we currently offer the underwater welding course in theory and provide our students with a minimum of 30 hours of topside welding experience.  After the second month of classroom training, students participate in the practical applications of surface supplied diving almost every day.  We have a 40,000 gallon training tank that allows the student to gain a good understanding of the fundamentals of diving utilizing both demand flow and free flow diving helmets.  This will ensure that the students are well prepared for open water dives.  Our open water dives are conducted off the coast of La Jolla, CA in water depths ranging from 60-80 fsw.  We are affiliated with both ADCI and ACDE for diving and NBDHMT for our DMT students.  Don't forget, we are also a regionally accredited University through WASC.-  I hope this helps.

Best,

I was a member of cohort A and although it's not mandated, I would appreciate a courtesy notice if my personal photo is going to be used for advertising.
