TDI Nitrox Instructor

is an entry level course for instructors wishing to teach enriched air Nitrox as a breathing gas. Little else has impacted recreational diving more than the introduction of Nitrox, allowing more time underwater. During this course, instructors learn the benefits, hazards and proper procedures for teaching EAN 22 to EAN 40.

TDI Advanced Nitrox Instructor

qualifies Nitrox Instructors to teach the use of enriched air Nitrox from EAN 21 through EAN 100 to a depth of 40 metres/130 feet during dives that do not require staged decompression. Often taught in conjunction with the TDI Decompression Procedures Instructor course, this can be considered the first step to beginning your technical diving teaching career.
