Expand Your Diving Limits with Advanced Nitrox Training

The IANTD Advanced EANx Diver course is the first and most complete programme of its kind, designed to provide comprehensive training for dives using two Nitrox mixes — one for the bottom and one for decompression — with a maximum depth of 42 metres.

This is one of the most important technical diving courses offered by IANTD and represents the transition from recreational diving to more advanced, demanding diving activities.

Through this course, divers will develop the awareness, determination, and sense of responsibility necessary to dive deeper and stay longer, always in total safety.

Course Overview and Purpose

The course starts with the IANTD Advanced EANx Diver manual, a comprehensive resource designed to provide theoretical knowledge and practical foundations.

You will study key topics essential for safe deep diving with Nitrox, including:

  • Physical and physiological principles of deep diving
  • Psychomotor exercises to build confidence and control
  • Training and physical fitness for deep dives
  • Experience and personal responsibility in technical diving
  • Equipment knowledge and correct setup

All of these elements are crucial to safely manage dives using Nitrox (EANx) mixes up to 42 metres with decompression.

During confined water sessions and open water dives, you will practice and refine these skills under the guidance of a qualified IANTD Instructor.

Upon successful completion, you will receive the IANTD Advanced EANx Diver certification, issued by the International Association of Nitrox and Technical Divers.
