DECOMPRESSION PROCEDURES DIVER

Decompression Procedures Diver

As sport divers, planned decompression is not something that we do or have been taught.The Decompression Procedures Course prepares you for planned staged decompression diving. With a maximum operating depth of 45 metres/150 feet, this course is your first step beyond the normal sport diving limits. The Decompression Procedures Course combined with the  Advanced Nitrox course form the foundation of all other technical courses. After these two courses and some additional experience, the stage has been set for you to move onto additional technical levels.Ready to register for the Decompression Procedures Diver Course?
