About ITDA Technical Instructor

ITDA Technical Instructor covers a multitude of training and certifications for technical divers, from Entry Level Technical Instructor (Nitrox Ntech Instructor), Technical Instructor training is totally different from the sports scuba / recreational diving Instructor training, as the instructor candidate in technical programs MUST be certified in the subject area to become an instructor in that area...

For Example to become an Ntech Nitrox Instructor, the candidate MUST be certified as an Ntech Advanced Nitrox Diver first (Demonstrating that they are already masters of Nitrox Diving...) The same is true for all levels of our Technical Specialist Instructor Training... 

Our programs are very different from most other technical agencies as we have an "Upgrade Paths" to Advanced Professional Levels.

Technical Instructors may now also take the assessor workshop and then they may add the ITDA Academy Certificate in Diving (Specialist) and Diploma program....   see ITDA Academy link
