ADC International's logoInternational Diving Institute (IDI) is a member of the Association of Diving Contractors International (ADC) and trains to the Standards published by the Association of Commercial Diving Educators (ACDE), the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the National Association of SCUBA Educators (NASE), and the Sea Research Society (SRS). Each IDI elective course (advanced program or certification) that a diver takes increases the diver's overall effectiveness and thus his worth to his employer and should result in higher pay. Each elective should not only be thought of as an investment in a diver's financial future, but also an investment in the diver's personal safety and enjoyment of his work in the field of commercial diving. Whether you dive in the deep sea or in hazardous waste, the respect you get is real.
