Job Opportunities for a life support technician

The Life Support Technician LST course is a great addition to any commercial divers CV. The course prepares those with the relevant industry experience the ability to work as part of a bell dive team. This course is going to be the best add-on to a Part 3 certificate as it builds upon the skills and knowledge needed to work successfully offshore in the oil and gas industry. More information regarding career pathways from an Assistant Life Support Technician (ALST) to Life Support Technician (LST) to Life Support Supervisor (LSS) can be found on the ADAS website.

What Past Students had to say

it was the best 3 months of my life, it went so quick as the course was enjoyable and we were doing different things every day. Thanks, CDA for a great course and helping me find employment after the course. Anyone thinking of doing the course just do it you want regret it, the school has great facilities, you’ll meet new friends and get the best training available anywhere.

The facility, equipment and training that is offered and available to students is nothing short of amazing. The Saturation barge is an experience within its self. I'd doubt you'd get this type of experience anywhere else in the southern hemisphere.

one of the biggest things a noticed was that students even from Part 1 and 2 were being trained exactly as we would if we were working on an offshore and onshore worksite. Something I feel I missed out from previous training elsewhere.
