Graduates from the Professional Scuba Dive Instructors (PSDI) program have found work or are currently working in Canada, Mexico, Vietnam, Thailand, Egypt, Jordan, Greece, Dominica, Australia, Bahamas, Turks, Caicos and the Maldives."Scuba Diving on the Sunshine Coast is fantastic. There are many great sites that are easily accessible from shore, and with an air compressor available 24 hours, diving was easy and convenient both day and night. The Professional Scuba Diving Program at Cap College on the Sunshine Coast gave me the opportunity and resources I needed to be successful in my career. After Graduation, with the help of the Capilano College teaching staff, I had the necessary skills to begin teaching in Coast Rica. Currently, I work full time managing a diving shop in Vancouver at the University of British Columbia, and am able to teach and dive some of the best sites the BC coast has to offer." Brendan Andreson, UBC Aquatic Society Manager Class of 2008.
Hi Jim, "Just had a call from Matthew's Mom and she said he is doing incredible. Club Med in Turks and Caicos wants him to stay for another year, but he said he wants to travel so they offered him the opportunity to stay with Club Med. Mom said it was worth every $$$$$". Cheers, Sandi
