​​​​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.

To enroll in the Tec 40 course, you must be:

A PADI Advanced Open Water Diver

- Team diving techniques and emergency procedures, such as dealing with free flows, manifold leaks and out of gas situations

The Scuba Gear You Use
