Do the divers trying out have to bring their own gear for the pool sessions in the beginning of the process?

bump... so I'm a fairly new diver... going to take my AOW this spring...
should i wait a few years at least before i volunteer?... is it hard for a rookie to get in?
As a diver interested in the National aquarium's volunteer dive program, you will be kept up-to-date with important details and alerts about the recruitment process. Presently, there are plans for a major renovation of our Wings in the Water exhibit. It will close after Labor Day 2012 and re-open as a neo-Pacific exhibit in May 2013. Since divers play an important role in the care and maintenance of this exhibit and its animals, additional and alternate volunteer responsibilities are being considered as this project's start date approaches. While this is happening, we thought it best to postpone our new diver recruitment from late winter to June 2012 at the earliest. You will still receive details and pertinent dates of the recruitment well in advance of its start - approximately 5-6 weeks. Until then, we thank you for your patience and your continued support of the National Aquarium's Dive Program.
