"I just wanted to send a quick shout out to ya about the PLAR course you put on for us this week here on Grand Manan. I feel and I believe I speak for our group as a whole that you did an exceptional job. Although I have been diving full time for 16 years I feel I gained a lot from your course.
Your preparedness approach and level of professionalism I have never seen exceeded. I am also sure that work you do and have done will save lives and ensure safer diving practices for many(including myself). You are a top-notch instructor and I'm glad I had the privilege of meeting you and taking your course."

"They have told me that I am way more prepared than any other starting employee they have ever had. That's where I owe everyone there thanks. I feel confident in what I am doing, and it has shown. Although I don't know everything, I have a great base to start my career. I want to thank everyone there for teaching me what it takes to be a diver, and giving me the knowledge and confidence I need."

"I'd like to start by thanking you guy's for the excellent one on one training I've had while attending DiveSafe International. The great day's of Diving, project and practical knowledge we've gained from your combined years in the trade. The course was challenging and really changed how I approach the water before a dive. I found the dive hours priceless in the sense that through constructive critiquing I could focus on the areas of my diving to develop. In the classroom I really had to keep my head in the books, I relearned what I was to study efficiently and right up to the final day of exams pushed myself. I appreciate all the staff's commitment to our success and patience when we may have fallen short of your expectations. I feel more confident and now capable to taking a place as a new comer in the professional dive world. Thank you very much and hope to see you again in the classroom and on the water in the near future."

graduate, July 2009
"I took the Commercial Scuba course in 2002. In November 2007 I took the Inshore Surface Supply course. Being a PADI instructor it gave me the chance to focus on the working aspects of diving. This took my career to a new level and I'm now working as a construction diver. DiveSafe International is THE training facility to go to on the west coast. Kelly and his team are very well known in the industry."

"I took my commercial diver course with DiveSafe back in 2007 and had a great time there. It's a great five week program and Kelly Korol and all the instructors there are really helpful. They genuinely want you to succeed. You learn a lot from all their years of experience as commercial divers.
I was able to take what I learned from the courseand immediatley start working in the field. Even now they still keep in touch and have helped me out when I have questions. I would highly recommend DiveSafe if you are interested in commercial diving."
