PADI Tec 45
This is a course where you rise to the challenge and commit to becoming a technical diver. The PADI Tec 45 course extends your depth limit to 45 metres. You will learn to plan and execute single and repetitive decompression dives using a single decompression cylinder with up to 100 percent oxygen. You will use double cylinders, which can be either back mount or sidemount diving configuration. Tec 45 is a prerequisite to Tec 50.
To enroll in the Tec 45 course, you must meet these qualifications:
- PADI Tec 40 Diver
- PADI Rescue Diver*
- Minimum of 50 logged dives, with at least 10 dives deeper than 30 metres/100 feet
- 18 years old
* If meeting this with a qualifying certification, provide proof of CPR/First Aid training within the previous two years.
You also need to have a Diver Medical Form signed by a physician within the last 12 months.
Note that some qualifying certifications from other diver training organizations may apply – ask your Tec 45 Instructor.
Academic
Your Tec 45 training consists of seven knowledge development sections, four practical application sessions and four open water dives. Building on what you learned in the Tec 40 course, you will focus on additional techniques, procedures, and emergency skills. You will learn more advanced decompression, gas planning, decompression models, and fine-tune your thinking like a technical diver.
