Become a Nitrox Specialty Course Instructor on Koh Tao

Student divers often comment on how quickly their dive went and ask why they had to finish their dive when they still had air left in their cylinder.

As a PADI Specialty Instructor you know the time is right for them to take the next step to extend their dive limits and become Enriched Air Nitrox divers.

The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Instructor specialty course will show you how to teach your students to use Enriched Air Nitrox for no stop recreational diving with an enriched air compatible dive computer.

Learn to Teach PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty Course

You will teach them how to plan and organize computer-assisted diving Enriched Air Nitrox diving with 22 percent to 40 percent oxygen and how to monitor no stop limits and oxygen exposure.

During the PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Instructor specialty course you will learn how to guide your students through knowledge development sections.

In Knowledge development sections, you can use the paper knowledge review or via the PADI Enriched Air Diver Course Online, where you can clarify any questions online prior to the arrival of students.

We will also show you the best way how to conduct the practical application sessions.
