As rewarding as it is challenging, tec diving is scuba’s extreme sport, taking experienced and qualified divers far deeper than mainstream recreational diving
As a part of the course students will plan and conduct a standard stage decompression dive not exceeding a maximum depth of 40 metres/130 fsw utilizing Nitrox mixes from 40-100% oxygen to accelerate decompression. Equipment requirements, team requirements, equipment configuration, decompression breathing gas mixtures (including technical nitrox and oxygen) and decompression techniques are presented.
Upon successful completion of this course, graduates are considered competent to plan and execute dives that require stage decompression utilizing air for dives to a maximum depth of 40 metres/130 fsw that require stage decompression and EAN28 through 100% oxygen to accelerate decompression in conditions that approximate those of training.
Upon successful completion of this course, graduates are considered competent to plan and execute dives that require stage decompression utilizing mixtures of helium and nitrox for dives to a maximum depth of 45 metres/150 fsw that require stage decompression and EAN28 through 100% oxygen to accelerate decompression in conditions that approximate those of training.
Upon successful completion of this course, graduates are considered competent to plan and execute dives that require stage decompression utilizing mixtures of helium and air for dives to a maximum depth of 55 metres/180 fsw that require stage decompression and EAN28 through 100% oxygen to accelerate decompression in conditions that approximate those of training.
Upon successful completion of this course, graduates are considered competent to plan and execute dives requiring stage decompression using normoxic helium-based trimix and technical nitrox up to 100% oxygen for stage decompression to a depth of 200 fsw / 61 msw.
Upon successful completion of this course, graduates are considered competent to plan and execute dives requiring stage decompression using hypoxic helium-based trimix, travel gasses, and technical nitrox up to 100% oxygen for stage decompression to a depth of 250 fsw / 76 msw.
Since it’s part of the course, your PADI Tec 40 course training credits toward the PADI Tec 45 and Tec 50 courses. The Scuba Gear You’ll Use You use recreational scuba equipment, with some minor additions to enhance your ability to deal with tec diving conditions. This class will use the PADI Tec Deep Diver Crew-Pak, which introduces you to
The pak includes a manual, dive planning checklist and dive planning slate. The optional Equipment Set-up and Key Skills video on DVD is a great tool to help you practice at home in between your tec diving adventures. You’ll continue to use the Tec Deep Diver Crew-Pak through Tec 50.

Each of these courses will take you beyond recreational diving and immerse you deeper in the world of technical diving. You will learn about and understand the hazards and risks involved in technical diving, as well as how to prepare for and handle reasonable foreseeable technical diving emergencies.
Ultimately, you will also learn how to plan, conduct and manage Gas-switch extended no-decompression dives, Decompression dives, and Accelerated Decompression Dives up to 165 fsw (PADI Tec 50) using air, Enriched Air Nitrox, and Oxygen.
These three courses may be taken consecutively as a series or individually with time in between to practice and hone your skills.
You’ll learn about safety, hazards and special risks of overhead environments; gas management, entanglement, limited visibility, deep diving, equipment, sources of information, search methods, underwater navigation, legal aspects, artifacts, treasure, salvage, archaeology and appropriate material from other specialty courses as well.
