Tec Deep Instructor
Overview
Diving beyond recreational depths with open-circuit technical gear has allowed tec divers to discover amazing wrecks and photograph never-before-seen organisms. Tec Deep Instructors contribute to deep exploration by training the next generation of tec divers. When you earn this rating, you can conduct Discover Tec programs and teach Tec 40, Tec 45 and Tec 50 Diver courses.


Prerequisites
To enroll on a PADI Tec Deep Instructor course, you must:
Exit Requirements
Prior to sending in the PADI Tec Deep Instructor Application, you must also:
Materials Required
You must have, in your possession, a personal, current set of the following materials for study and use during the course and for reference afterwards;

Equipment Required
You will need to have full technical diving set-up. You can dive backmounted or sidemounted (if you already have the training in sidemount configuration). All required equipment is available at a very reasonable price for you to rent for the duration of your course, should you not have your own personal set. Do bear in mind though, that as a Tec Instructor you will be required to have all of your own personal equipment in order to teach in the future.
What's Involved in the Course?
If you aren’t already a certified tec diver, then you will need to complete the entire Tec 40, 45 and 50 Diver courses in addition to the Instructor training. The first part of the course ensures that you have a good grasp of the knowledge and skills required for technical deep diving. During the second part of the course, you practice conducting knowledge development, practical application and open water teaching segments. Your Tec Deep Instructor Trainer will also go over organization and marketing considerations for TecRec courses.

How Long Does the Course Take?
Normal duration: 3-4 days
Why XTC?
Prices
At XTC we are committed to making safe and competent Tec divers that are able to meet the course performance requirements in a comfortable and repeatable manner. Tec diving has additional inherent risks (when compared to recreational diving) and we want to minimize these additional risks as much as possible. This means is that our training is performance-based, not time-based, so course prices are based on daily rates and your Instructor will discuss with you if additional training days are required.
