The objective of this course is to train divers in the benefits, hazards and proper procedures for utilising EAN21 to 100% oxygen for dives NOT requiring staged decompression. Decompression Procedures may be combined with this course at the discretion of the instructor.

What do I need to start?
- Have a minimum certification of TDI Nitrox Diver (or equivalent)
- Be at least 15 years old (If this course is taught in conjunction with the Decompression Procedures course, then the minimum age is 18)

Course Duration
The course is run over 2-3 days
TDI Decompression Procedures Diver
This course examines the theory, methods and procedures of planned stage decompression diving. This program is designed as a stand alone course or it may be taught in conjunction with such TDI courses as Advanced Nitrox, Advanced Wreck or Extended Range. The objective of this course is to train divers how to plan and conduct a standard staged decompression dive not exceeding a maximum depth of 45m, unless taught in conjunction with the Extended Range course. The most common equipment requirements, gear set-up and decompression techniques are presented. Students are permitted to utilize EANx mixes or oxygen for decompression provided the gas mix is within their current certification level.
