About the Course

CCRs are the ideal tool for many technical (tec) diving missions. By becoming a Tec 60 CCR Instructor, you'll be able to train tec divers to extend their CCR diving adventures down to 60 metres/200 feet. In the Tec 60 CCR Instructor course, you'll learn to guide divers through multiple decompression stops using trimix/heliox as a diluent. It's the next step after you've gained experience as a Tec 60 CCR Diver and Tec 40 CCR Instructor.
