A little backstory to begin with;
Im living in the inlands in Norway, and given the population density here, there is to my knowledge only one other diver "near" me (and even that is 60 km away from here) and there is obviously no dive shops around. Ive also taken AOW with navigation, s&r, navigation, deep and wreck specialties.
Ive been working a fair bit with higher than normal risk and incident levels and do not easilly "freak out" when things happen.
Therefore I consider diving solo as an option to get some actual diving done a bit easier. Its not only hard to find a buddy here, but its also rather far (and costy) to travel around to locations with active divers. I want to keep my skills fresh at the least and of course also improve my bouyancy, sac and so on (yep, im still an air hog).
I have done 3 or 4 solo dives in a rather large lake with few obstacles and low risk of entanglement and i have kept the dives shallow (no deeper than 10 meters), so that CESA is an option.
Im wondering if there is any organization that provide "formal training" for solo diving?
I would assume the answer is no, but if there is any such training, who can provide it.
