Situational Awareness
“During every minute of a dive you are multitasking and managing decisions about 3 key aspects. Learning to dive your attention and manage all 3 simultaneously is paramount in successful diving operations.” “Andrew Georgitsis UTD”
• Environment.
• Equipment.
• Team.
The training is based on repetition and MUSCLE MEMORY. Simply, what you learn in intense training situation is remembered well. This program is offered free of charge and conducted with all our diver courses.

THE TRAINING AGENCY
International Association of Nitrox and Technical Diving
IAND(International Association of Nitrox Diving) was the first training agency to offer Certification in nitrox diving, as a training organization founded in 1985 by Dick Rutkowski. In 1991 IAND became IANTD, adding the T for Technical. In 1995 IANTD is the first training agency to offer Open Water diver right through to Trimix Rebreather training (11576 divers certified in one year!). From 1996 mainstream scuba diver training agencies rethink opposition to Nitrox and Technical diving in face of “people power”; experience and research data of IANTD divers amongst others.
Education and training
• IANTD has nearly 20 years experience in diver education
• IANTD offers training programs for divers from Open water and Nitrox through Trimix and Rebreather
• IANTD Offers training in equipment preparation and gas blending for use with gas mixtures other than air IANTD today

•Recreational Trimix Diving
What is Recreational Trimix?
Recreational Trimix is the name of a course and also an umbrella term for dives conducted for fun (i.e. recreational) using Trimix. This distinguishes them from commercial and military diving, but also from technical diving - in which long decompressions may be performed on the way back to the surface. The equipment and training requirements for technical diving are different than for normal recreational diving, as it’s not possible to simply ascend to the surface in the event of a problem.
Whether you’ve logged a few dives, a few hundred dives or a few thousand dives, narcosis still plays a big part in diving below 24m. You might have performed a task at depth during your Advanced Open Water Diver to see how affected you were by what used to be known as the “rapture of the deep”, or you might have experienced more obvious symptoms of narcosis on a dive. The truth is, everyone is affected to some extent by narcosis on dives below 24m - whether we realize it at the time or not - and below 30m everyone is actually impaired enough that their problem solving ability is slowed. Beyond 30m, that effect becomes more severe and is coupled with the extra challenges of deep diving - increased air consumption rates, lower temperatures, reduced light, and many other factors.
Diver training is evolving to take narcosis management into account. Courses such as IANTD’s Recreational Trimix Diver and Advanced Recreational Trimix Diver courses are designed to in allow you to control the narcosis experienced on recreational dives. By adding helium to enriched air (Nitrox) you’re able to reduce the narcosis experienced on a dive, while still gaining the many of the benefits of the extended bottom times you’d traditionally get from Nitrox diving. It really is a win-win!
Recreational Trimix Diving offers a means of diving without the potentially dangerous effects of nitrogen narcosis. Whether you dive inshore or offshore, on wrecks or on reefs, in warm water or cold, Trimix offers you the chance to enjoy more of the dive, with less of the side effects of depth. “Kevin Evans IANTD UK”

Advanced Recreational Trimix
A.
Purpose
This program is designed to extend the diver’s knowledge of the use of EANx and Helium based mixtures for sports diving. The program employs EANx mixes from 21% to a maximum of 50% oxygen. It also allows use of helium based mixtures for dives deeper than 24 msw that provide a PO2 no greater than 1.5 at the TOD (target operating depth) with a Helium content that maintains an END
no greater than 24 msw. This program qualifies divers to perform trimix dives outside of training to depths up to 48 msw and perform required decompression stops up to 15 minutes in duration using EAN 50 as a decompression gas.

THE CATALOGUE 3
• Nitrox
This program is designed to provide sports divers with proper training and skills in using a different breathing medium than air and to extend bottom times for recreational purposes.
The idea behind Nitrox is not so much to add Oxygen as much as reduce Nitrogen. As commonly known in diving world, Nitrogen is what really limits our diving. By increasing the amount of Oxygen in our mix we correspondingly reduce the amount of Nitrogen in the same mix. A 32% Nitrox mixture, for example, increases the percentage of Oxygen from 21% (normally found in air) to 32%, thereby reducing the percentage of nitrogen from 78% (normally found in air) to 68%. With less Nitrogen in the Breathing mix, the diver can enjoy longer bottom time with a potentially reduced risk of decompression sickness.
• IANTD Deep Diver
This program is designed for responsible training for divers who plan to dive to a maximum of 39msw. It is the first sanctioned international program to provide proper training in safe deep diving skills and
performance. The diver gets trained on proper deep diving planning, gas management and equipment configuration. For the first time the diver gets a training on dual valve diving in the form of double tanks or stage sling tank or spare air. The program is recommended to be conducted with EANx or recreational trimix.
