Diventures and DAN created a professional training partnership to bring the DAN Diving Operations Safety Training to dive operators and professionals worldwide. This is a 40-hour course covering 23 important topics. We offer blended learning with in-person and virtual components. Students can complete their training on-site at their dive operation or at select Diventures locations throughout the country.
Training topics include recompression chambers, basic fire awareness, oxygen cleaning, Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA), emergency action plans, right of refusal, sustainable business practices, ecological aspects, and much more. After completing this training, students may seek out opportunities to be appointed as a Safety Officer or Safety Coordinator for a recreational diving operation or business.
Claude Smith, an SSI Instructor Certifier and Platinum Pro 5000 Instructor, will be your instructor for the Diving Operations Safety Training. Smith’s extensive industry experience spans decades in varied dive operations, including retail facilities, charter boat operations, and international travel destinations, as well as leading hundreds of bus trips to the Florida Keys with Diventures. Smith is also a DAN Instructor Trainer and PSI/PCI Instructor.
