Content of course
The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Diver specialty course is a pure theoretical course which you will absolve as an e-learning course. The practical EAN dive is optional, but we do recommend to participate in the dive to get some practise about the saftey procedures of EAN diving.
1. PADI e-learning theory
The PADI Enriched Air Diver course is PADI's most popular specialty scuba diving course, and it's easy to see why. Scuba diving with enriched air nitrox gives you more no decompression dive time. This means more time underwater, especially on repetitive scuba dives.
You prepare yourself with the PADI e-learning software at home on your tablet, notebook or PC. We strongly recommend not to study on a small screen of a smartphone. The interactive e-learning will let you read the texts and watch the video and will check your understanding with some knowledge reviews.
The best experience is to study online, however, if you find yourself without internet such as on the beach or while traveling or if you have inconsistent, poor internet services, you may download content to study offline via the PADI Training app. Content can be downloaded for convenience with a total file size of approximately 440 MB.
The PADI Training app is available for Apple® iOS devices and Android™ devices. It’s best if devices are no more than three generations old.
PADI Enriched Air Diver eLearning provides the basic knowledge and safety concepts, required to use enriched air for no-stop recreational diving with an enriched air compatible dive computer while using enriched air with 22 to 40 percent oxygen.
The e-learning software comes in these languages: Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish
2. Practical EAN dive (optional - but recommended)
The practical dive with EAN 32 is strongly recommended by Dive Centre ATLANTIK. In this dive we will practise the safety procedures you studied in your e-learning course and we will have a nice fun dive to the maximum opeartion depth of 33m allowed for the EAN 32 mixture.
