  The Training Venue

Training in Underwater Port Security is conducted in Key West, Florida, using both the Marine Public Safety Training Facility on the main campus of FKCC and the Port of Key West. These facilities, located within minutes of each other, provide an opportunity for year-round, virtually all-weather training operations. The College campus, including its unique Underwater Training Area (UTA), currently is the site for all U.S. Army Corps of Engineers civilian diver training, the East Coast facility for NOAA diver training, and a primary location for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement FDLE) courses in Underwater Police Science and Technology. These and other FKCC courses frequently make use of the Port of Key West for practical field training. Although it is the busiest cruise port in the Eastern U.S., scheduled traffic in this facility is still light enough to provide a safe training environment for small boat and diving operations.
