“As the DSO at CSA, I am lucky to be surrounded by leading experts in Scientific Diving. However, having the opportunity to learn from and co-teach with Dr. Brylske was both an honor and a privilege. As a Scientific Diver, it is vital that we continually seek the knowledge and expertise from as many industry experts as possible. Once we stop learning, it is time to leave the profession. Furthermore, having the opportunity to share my knowledge and expertise with future Scientific Divers was an incredible experience. It is our responsibility as professionals to develop the future of our industry. It is through empowering others with knowledge and skills that we truly grow as professionals,” said Eirik.
“It was a pleasure having an experienced DSO from CSA to attend and assist with the course. My hope for Eirik’s participation was that it would be an opportunity to learn from each other, and we certainly accomplished that goal. His contributions provided a unique insight into the private sector of Scientific Diving. Students gained a greater understanding of the scope of work available to Scientific Divers,” stated Dr. Brylske.
