Walter:NOAA isn't a true certification agency even though they do train and certify their own employees.
MSilvia:I'm not sure what you mean by "true", but I have a NOAA certification and I'm not (and never have been) a NOAA employee. Getting it was a prerequisite for me to join them for dive missions as a volunteer.
SubMariner:they are not a recognized training agency.
Tech Admin:NOAA has been added, correct me if I am wrong but the full name is "National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration"?
Walter:Might as well at the US Navy to the list as well.
