DIT is where people go to fulfill their dreams of becoming successful commercial divers. Graduates are working all over the world in nearly every aspect of commercial diving, including underwater welding and Non-Destructive Testing.

DIT is a member of the Association of Commercial Diving Educators (ADCE) and are accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology (ACCSCT). DIT takes pride on the fact they exclusively train in open water. This kind of real-world training better prepares graduates for a successful career in commercial diving.

All graduates are entitled to continuing job placement services. This helps them find jobs even after they have left the school. And since many of their graduates now hold senior positions throughout the diving industry, the opportunity for their current graduates to find work is even greater. In addition to this, graduates can also receive a certification indicating that they have successfully completed a training program recognized by the Divers Certification Board of Canada as complying with the CSA Z275.4-02, which further increases their employability by allowing them to work internationally. No other dive school in the U.S. offers this type of certification.
