Alumni Testimonials

I would say that it’s probably the most substantial foothold, with respect to my education, that propelled me to where I am today. The bulk of the senior management team at US Underwater are Ocean Corp graduates.

Bryan NichollsPresident/COO at U.S. Underwater Services, LLC

The skills that I got here were invaluable to me when I got to work, either offshore, inland, or at NASA. I’m helping train folks that are going to be the first people to set foot on Mars. Getting that kind of excitement is great.

Arthur LevineNeutral Buoyancy Laboratory Systems Operations Lead at NASA/Johnson Space Center

You guys care about your graduates, and that’s important.

Marni ZabarskyHealth, Safety, Environment, and Quality Manager at Aqueos Corporation

As a business owner, my main place to get employees, get divers and tenders, and even other services… I reach out to the school just because of the network that they have.

Jose DacasaPresident at Omega Divers

You can do pretty much anything. You can work in any industry. You can work in any field. There’s inspections everywhere.

Brandon Ford (NDT)ASNT Level II MT, PT, RT with trainer status

For sure, I wouldn’t be where I’m at if I didn’t come to Ocean Corp when I did. Where I’m at now, I’m truly six plus years ahead of where I would be.

Andrew Furgason (NDT)NDE Manager, Element Materials Technology (ASNT Level III UT, RT, MT, PT); Owner Broadhead NDT

Everything that I’ve learned and know and have gotten from the Ocean Corporation has been instrumental in my success. The teachers, the staff, the cadre, the upper echelon—they all are here willing to help.

Curtis Jordan (UDT & NDT)Diver, Inventor, Entrepreneur, Owner/Founder of ARMRCOMM

It’s really changed my life. University and college wasn’t for me, and it’s not a thing for a lot of people. Ocean’s training completely turned my life around. I’ve been able to provide a great living for my wife, my son, and everything as a whole.

Brian O’Leary (UDT & NDT)Program Manager at Gecko Robotics, Inc.
