How Do I Become A Underwater Welder?
As I mentioned you need to attend a commercial diving school or underwater welding tech. school. Normally these schools last 2 to 6 months long however I know there is one in Santa Barbra that has a 2 year program. I went to the Divers Academy in Camden, NJ. The 2 to 6 month programs are generall require at least 25 hours a week .
