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).
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 maximum
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 sw/55msw
that require staged decompression, utilizing nitrox mixtures
and oxygen during decompression.
Entry Level
Trimix
This course provides the training required to competently
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 200fsw/60msw.
Advanced
Level Trimix
This course provides the training required to competently
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.
