Description
In the ProTec Extended Range certification course you learn and train to competently use air for diving to a depth of 55 meters with decompression stages. The usage of Nitrox mixtures or at least Oxygen is required. The purpose of this program is to train divers how to reach depths that are deeper than the standard recreational diving limit of 40 meters without using an expensive or even not available gas-mixture like Trimix.
The knowledge that you will acquire during the Extended Range program will help you understand many different factors that have to be taken into account when preparing technical dives. Moreover, it will allow you to make decisions regarding the best approach for each specific type of diving.
