Already Credentialed by Another Board?
If you hold a current credential from another recognized board, you can apply for the equivalent IBHBOT credential. The board reviews your credential, your license and your documents.
Equivalencies
| You hold | And | You can apply for |
|---|---|---|
| A current dive medic credential from NBDHMT | A current EMT license | DMT-B |
| A current dive medic credential from NBDHMT | A current paramedic, NP or PA license | DMT-A |
| A current IMCA dive medic credential | You are a commercial diver | DMT-C |
| A current hyperbaric technologist credential from another recognized board | — | AHT or RHT |
Your IBHBOT credential follows IBHBOT’s tiers and renewal requirements from the date it is issued. An equivalency review fee applies and is refunded if the application is denied.
