Basic Service Technician Course

The Concept: We believe anyone relatively new to scuba service (a year or less) will find this course to be extremely valuable. It is ideal for new service techs before they attend their first manufacturer's manual-driven short course. The learning is also evaluated and verified at course completion. A written and a practical examination are administered, both of which must be passed before a course certificate is issued.

The Training. This program covers:

• Engineering concepts and materials used in all components of scuba
• Appropriate scuba service tools and diagnostic equipment
• Appropriate bench procedures for cleaning and inspecting
• Standard methods of equipment reassembly
• Standard methods of bench-testing/adjusting
• Creating and maintaining standardized service records for both business management and defensibility.

The Schedule:

• Please give us a call. We schedule these three-day classes as need indicates.

The Cost: $350

The Guarantee: If, at the completion of the course, you don't feel it was worth the money, we will refund your tuition immediately.

What to bring: Nothing but a positive attitude and a curious mind. We will provide a service notebook and use of all tools during the course.
