Nitrox
This is the entry level certification course for recreational divers
wishing to utilize enriched air nitrox (EAN) as a breathing gas. The
objective of this course is to train divers in the benefits, hazards and
proper procedures for using nitrox mixes from 22% to 40% oxygen content.
Advanced Nitrox
This course examines the use of EAN 21 through 100% (oxygen) for optimal
mixes to a depth of 150fsw/45msw. The object of this course is to train
divers in the benefits, hazards and proper procedures for utilizing EAN 21
through 100% (oxygen) for dives not requiring staged decompression.
(Decompression techniques may be combined with this course at the
discretion of the instructor).
Advanced Wreck
This course provides the training and experience to competenly conduct
advanced wreck dives, penetration skills and techniques are covered.
Decompression
Procedures
This course examines the theory, methods and procedures of planned stage
decompression diving. The objective of this course is to train divers how
to plan and conduct a standard staged decompression dive not exceeding a
maxium depth of 150fsw/50msw unless taught in conjunction with advanced
nitrox, Extended Range or Advanced Wreck Courses. The most common
equipment requirements, gear set-ups, decompression techniques and
decompression mixtures (including oxygen and nitrox) are presented.
Extended Range
This course provides the training and experience required to competently
utilize air for dives up to 180 fsw/55msw that require staged
decompression, utilizing nitrox mixtures and oxygen during decompression.
Advanced Level Trimix
This course provides the training required to competenly and safely
utilize breathing gasses containing helium for dives that require staged
decompression, utilizing nitrox and/or oxygen mixtures during
decompression to a maximum depth of 300fsw/100msw.
Rebreather Training
This is the entry-level certification course for recreational divers
wishing to utilize a nitrox semiclosed circuit rebreather (benefits,
hazards and proper procedures are comprehensively taught).
Nitrox Gas Blender
The objective of this course is to train candidates in the proper
technique equipment requirements and hazards involved in blending nitrox
gases for recreational scuba.
Advanced Gas Blender
The objective of this course is to train candidates in the proper
procedures needed for the preparation and blending of high quality
gasses.
Service Technician
This course enables the successful candidate to engage in the preparation
of scuba equipment for technical diving gasses.
Overhead
Environment/Cavern
This course is designed to develop the minimum skills and knowledge for
cavern and overhead environment diving within the limits of light
penetration; in addition outlines specific hazards associated with cave
diving. The cavern course is not intended to provide instruction for cave
diving environments.
Introductory Cave
This course is an introduction to the basic principles of cave diving
utilizing a single cylinder. Introductory cave diving is the second level
in the development of safe techniques for cave diving, directly building
upon the cavern course.
Cave
This course is the third stage of training in the series of TDI’s cave
diver development program. Advanced cave dive planning the practical
execution of different types of cave systems and scenarios divers
encounter are presented.
Technical
Divemaster
This course is the third stage of training in the series of TDI’s
program. Advanced dive planning
