Technical Diving Courses
Technical diving picks up where sport diving ends, generally at nitrox (a
breathing gas with oxygen levels greater than 21 percent). Nitrox is most
divers first step into technical but it has also become very popular amongst
sport divers so TDI Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures would be a
great start. Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures for the foundation
of technical diving all other course will build on the knowledge and skills
learned during these courses.
The American Council of
Education (ACE) recommends certain PADI certification courses for college credit. A university or
college may apply the credit to your major replacing a required course or a general
elective. Always contact your college or university before applying
for credit.
