The PADI Tec 40 course is where you transition from recreational scuba
diving to technical diving. It’s a great place to start because it’s the first
subdivision of the full PADI Tec Diver course and bridges the gap between no
stop diving and full technical deep decompression diving. You gain experience
and begin building the knowledge and skills you need to continue your tec diver
training. You will qualify to make limited decompression dives to 40 metres /130
feet.
The Tec 40 course consists of three knowledge development sections,
three practical application sessions and four training dives. You’ll learn
about:
• Technical diving’s risks and responsibilities
• Technical diving equipment, proper rigging and set up
• Gas planning, oxygen limits and decompression planning
• Team diving techniques and emergency procedures, such as dealing with
free flows, manifold leaks and out of gas situations
• 3 theory and 3 practical sessions
• 1 pool / confined water dive
• 4 open water dives
