Converting Dive training to Colleges credit
#1
I'm looking for ideas for a group of ex-military vets currently in civilian dive school. Does any know of a way to convert the specifics of the school into college credits? Would these high in CERTS be able to be converted via PLA?

Here is the list of CERTS they will receive. I did not find anything in ACE or NCCRS. There are a couple of universities and colleges that might have classes to be used via a PLA but I'm not sure yet.

INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATIONS

These two main diving certifications allow DIT graduates to work domestically and globally.

  • Unrestricted Surface Supplied Diver certification from the Diver Certification Board of Canada (DCBC)
