Want overseas work, considering Ocean Corp
I am looking into this as a new career, I am sick of cube life and like to get wet/sandy.
I would love to work in Asia on a contract basis. For the time being though I live in Houston and Ocean Corp is right here. So I am thinking about going there. I do have the means to do whatever I need to do if it would be necessary to go somewhere else to get the schooling needed for international work.
Would I be on the right track to do Ocean Corp and after that doing some time as a tender and then looking towards overseas?
Any advice appreciated guys, and thanks!

Actually, looks like the Professional Diving Centre in Durban would be fun to do as well, and it costs about half as much. Any major pitfalls to that?

Do whatever it takes to get you in the field and working as quickly and safely as possible. Ocean Corp has a good oilfield program.

Chino divers = free room & board, free training,free clothing ( if you like blue ) regular bed time.

Yeah, that is pretty cold to suggest this option. You may also want to know that once you are accepted, there is heavy competition to actually take the course.
