i’M interested in your chamber operator course.
Do you run these courses during the week or only on weekends.
I use to have a private recompression chamber here in Gran Canaria but we sold this two years ago.
i hold a licenec fron IHMP/ITDA but i would like a more recognized licence.
Can i with your licence operate a chamber for normal diving accidents up to table 6?
Thanks
