This is going to be two questions. 1) How many of you out there are public safety divers? 2) How many are intrested in attending a public safety diver class?

I should find out June 2nd if I'm a public safety diver.
and I would be intrested in the class If I can fit it in. Do you have details on how many sesions/ hours/ start date/ $

can you imanage the call
"Hi Jim your on the team"
"great here's the invoice for my first PSD class" ;D

Public Safety diving is the search and rescue/ police/ Fire department divers. The class is a three day 8 hours a day class. The cost is somewhere $350, and some require that you be part of a Public Safety department. I am sure if we want to do a class, and you are intrested we could find a department to sponser those who are not currently on one.

Did anything ever happen with this? I'm still interested in the training.

If we can find about 20 people who are connected with a public safety agency (Police, Fire, search and rescue) we can get the class going. If we can get enough people to commit, I will do the leg work and make it happen. Big Grin

Please e-mail me at rudolph_rn@hotmail.com if you are intrested. Let me know if you are currently a member of a Public Safety or not.

I did some checking and I need to get about 10 people from outside my department and I can make it a go!! PLEASE e-mail or let me know if are interested. I want to have a group of people who would attend before I get too far into this. If you have any friends who might be intrested let them know, and get them in touch with me. I really want to get this going. It would happen spring/ early summer.

I am trying to understand where this class is beneficial to a diver not already associated with a department that supports PS divers. Don't most PS dive teams train or provide training for there divers? And/or are you to be a trained PS diver before applying to a department? Or is this useful even if your not associated with a PS dept? Does this class include certification? What level of dive training would you need as a prerequisit(?)?
Inquiring minds want to know.
