Hello, My name is Rock and I'm wondering whether there are any underwater welding companies in the Washington, D.C. area that will train you for the job

You should talk to a boiler maker or welding union. You could also check with the Navy.


These are the ones in my area maybe they can tell you what's closest to you.

Almost all underwater welding is not done "on the job" but though specific schools that train and then help with job training. This is because of the certifications in both diving and in welding that has to be received to do these jobs.
