TECHNICAL NITROX

 Technical Nitrox (AKA Technical EANx) is designed to provide certified Nitrox divers with the skills and knowledge to use mixtures of 25% to 80% oxygen as breathing gases.  It further enhances understanding of Nitrox diving, especially the advantages of mixtures with higher levels of oxygen as decompression media.  The use of Nitrox in more complex dive planning applications is emphasized.  Training in rescue techniques specific to the use of enhanced oxygen mixtures is also provided.  (This course may be combined with the Decompression Techniques Diver Course)
