The PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) Course trains you to dive with enriched air mixes of up to 40% oxygen, giving you more bottom time. The course includes a knowledge development session, which teaches you how to use Nitrox tables, monitor your oxygen exposure, set depth limits and fill your tank. This is followed by two open-water training dives.
After the specialty course, the Course Director will train you to teach Nitrox as a specialty, enabling you to apply for one of the most popular Specialty Instructor ratings.
