Our tec diving courses


We teach Open Circuit and Closed Circuit Rebreather tec diving courses from beginner up to hypoxic trimix level via SSI XR, TDI and IANTD.

Both agencies are around for decades already and are members of the World Recreational Scuba Training Council (WRSTC) and the Rebreather Education and Safety Association (RESA) to ensure a high minimum training standard.

During all our tec diving courses our main goal is to deliver a high standard of safety and to give the student enough time to understand all aspects which are go into planning a technical dive.

Student during tec diving course

All tec diving courses start off with shallow water skill training/evaluation off existing skills. During those shallow water dives we take care that the student has enough time to practice the required skill set from the agency. Additionally, we put a lot off effort in essential diving skills as for example body posture and finning techniques. Compared to what most people are used from their recreational training we want to ensure that during our tec diving courses all skills can be completed while neutrally buoyant and while holding a steady team formation.

If both instructor and student are happy with the performance, we move on to the actual course dives. In comparison to what people are used too, we highly believe that during a technical diving course the student should oversee all the details of the dive.

This includes:

  • Risk assessment of the site
  • Creating an emergency plan
  • Planning the dive
  • Taking care of navigation during the dive

One more aspect which we think should be included in every technical diving course are simulated emergency scenarios. During your training dive your instructor will confront you with a variety of problems same as they could happen during a real technical dive. As for example loss of decompression gas, loss of backgas or any other equipment malfunction.

In the following you can discover the main list of technical diving courses which Lagona Divers – Technical has to offer. Please note that the duration times are the standard minimum set by agencies. As we are dedicated to help create safer and better educated divers we mostly exceed those times during our technical diving courses.

We help you to safely achieve your goals as a technical diver so you can enjoy your future dive adventures!

Open Circuit Tec Diving Courses


CCR Courses

Lagona Divers Technical offers CCR Courses on the X-CCR, Triton CCR and Hollis Prism2 starting from recreational CCR Diver up to the Hypoxic Trimix Level. The basic working principle of a CCR (closed circuit rebreather) consists of recycling the breathing mixture within a loop. To keep a constant ppO2, small amounts of oxygen are injected (either manually or automatically) into the exhaled gas to replace the oxygen which has been metabolized by the diver. Carbon dioxide produced by the diver gets absorbed by the Scrubber (absorbent). The composition of the breathing mixture changes continuously during the dive.
