This course teaches you how to safely use enriched oxygen (nitrox) for diving. It does not cover the detailed theory of decompression, but focuses on understanding the risks associated with using enriched oxygen and how to use dive computers safely when diving with it.

Understanding decompression theory and learning how to safely use enriched oxygen gas for diving, including understanding the risks associated with enriched oxygen and the procedures for its safe use, will provide you with the knowledge and skills to adjust the conservative settings on your dive computer, and to calculate the risks of using enriched oxygen even without a dive computer—all essential theoretical knowledge for becoming a competent diver.

This program comprehensively enhances diving skills and teaches how to plan diving trips; participants will also serve as assistant instructors in beginner and intermediate courses, providing support and guidance to other students.
