Pierre Kleinhans

Greetings and welcome to The Academy of Diving and Offshore Medicine. My name is Pierre Kleinhans. I am the CEO at the Academy, and my role is to ensure the effective control of work which is crucial to safe diving operations. I am also accountable for hazard identification and risk control measures associated with work performed during training and diving operations. I have been in the Commercial Diving Industry since 2001, fulfilling roles as Class III Diving Supervisor and Instructor. Additionally, I oversee the Class IV, III and II Learner Supervisor programs at the Academy. As a facilitator, assessor and moderator I will support you on your journey to gain the skills necessary to become a competent Commercial Diver. Welcome to The Academy and the Seadog Family.
