So my DSMB document/manual/whatever, has been discussed in different threads where people said they wanted a copy. While cruising old DMs, I came across one conversation (name blacked out for privacy reasons) from a seasoned instructor that was even interested in paying for this information that has made me realized how deficient training/materials might actually be. I don't have the materials for all agencies on DSMB deployment, so I can't speak to how universal this is a problem.
Now I'm not interested in the piddly income that selling this material would bring. If it was about money, I'd be better off with a second job at McDonald's as the income divided by number of hours put into it is going to be far less than minimum wage. My preference for the sake of reach/distribution is a blog post/series (depends on how long it gets and SDI's final decision as it is their blog, not mine).
As I'm not an educator, my importance is probably less than that of a cockroach, but I'd still like to request from you, the new diver, the experienced diver, the instructor, what questions/concerns do you have that you'd like addressed? What format would you prefer? You are the ones I'm trying to serve here.
