TEC ADVANCED

The i.a.c Tec Advanced deepens the Tec Fundamental Skills, which are indispensable for safe technical diving. In this course, critical situations such as back gas/deco gas failure, bottom failures, decompression failures, etc. are trained and special emphasis is placed on problem identification and problem solving. In the Tec Advanced course, students learn how to handle a stage and the potential failures associated with it. Furthermore, decompression mandatory dive profiles with a gas change up to 100% O2 (i.a.c. recommends NX50 from 21m) are trained. Mastering open water ascents as well as emergency decompressions and diving after a runtime are also course objectives.
