You must have vams (warm suit for use in dry suit), flippers for dry suit, neoprene gloves, neoprene hood, work clothes for outdoor work and suitable footwear.

You also need a PC or tablet for the theoretical training.

Good health is required to become a diver, and normally healthy people without chronic diseases or the need for regular use of medication pass the medical examination. However, some conditions are incompatible with diving. Examples of this are asthma, substance abuse, obesity, psychiatry and epilepsy. If you have any questions, it is advisable to consult a diving doctor in advance.

The labor market for divers is good. But you must be flexible, hardworking and willing to travel.
