Nitrox Diver
This program provides recreational divers a safer breathing
medium for enjoying dives in 40 fsw (12 msw) to 130 fsw (39
msw) depth range. The diver may elect to dive the mix on EANx
tables or conservatively using their dive computers or air
tables with an added diver safety margin. The IANTD Nitrox
Diver certification is adaptable to being taught as a single
program or by combining it with a variety of advanced or specialty
diver courses.
Deep Diver
This program has been developed to provide responsible training
to divers who plan to dive to 130 fsw (39 msw) on air. The
IANTD Deep Air Diver program trains divers in skills, performance,
theory and planning of deep dives. This program remains within
the commonly practiced depth of 130 fsw (39 msw). It is the
first sanctioned program to provide proper international training
in safe deep diving skills and performance. It is recommended
that this program be taught in conjunction with the IANTD
EANx Diver program.
Advanced Nitrox Diver
This program is designed to extend the divers knowledge
with O2 mixes of 22 to 40% and up to 50% for decompression.
It further develops diving skills and provides a greater understanding
of the Nitrox diving concept.
Cavern and Wreck
The Cavern and Wreck training programs develop wreck diving
skills and cavern diving skills within limits of light penetration.
These programs are designed to ensure divers are aware of
self-responsibility and capable of risk management in overhead
environments. The programs may be taught using either air
or Nitrox.
Normoxic Trimix Diver
The IANTD Normoxic Trimix Diver program is aimed at those
who wish to dive in the zone between 130 fsw (39 msw) and
200 fsw (60 msw) but are not comfortable doing so on air.
The course uses normoxic mixtures and consists of 12 dives
and one three (3) hour confined water session. Six (6) dives
are on air to depths between 100 fsw (30 msw) and 130 fsw
(39 msw) and six (6) dives involve practicing specified skills
at depths between 30 fsw (9 msw) and 90 fsw (27 msw). All
dives will be performed with two (2) stage cylinders. Four
(4) Trimix dives are also made in the course with two (2)
at depths up to 165 fsw (50 msw) and two (2) at depths up
to 200 fsw (60 msw). This is an intense seven (7) day program
enabling the graduate to be qualified to dive normoxic Trimix
to 200 fsw (60 msw). It does not qualify the diver to use
hypoxic mixtures to participate in dives deeper than 200 fsw
(60 msw). The text for the course is IANTD's Technical Diver
Encyclopedia, associated Technical Diver Workbook, Slides
and newly developed Water-proof Tables.
Trimix Diver
The IANTD Trimix Diver program is dedicated to those individuals
already involved in deep diving activities. The Trimix course
is not designed to be used as an enticement to divers who
are content to remain in normal recreational or Nitrox diving
limits. Trimix affords a safer method for deep water exploration
for divers who must dive deep or perform with a clear head
in intermediate depths. The IANTD Trimix program establishes
the need to be self-sufficient.
