In addition to Commercial/Technical Diving, CDAWI also offers other programs that work in concert with your diving certification or add value by giving you additional skills to take with you to the job. Our programs are designed to give you an edge by ensuring that upon graduation, you are "ready to work." Our training goes beyond the classroom by giving students the most real world experience possible, and we take the time to work with each individual student to determine career goals and assist him or her with the knowledge on the best way to achieve them. Our students' success is our success.

All of our diving is supervised by certified NASE Commercial Diving Supervisors. Ensuring our students' safety is one of our primary concerns.
