Tec 50 is the final subset of the Tec Deep Diver course & opens the door to deeper diving expeditions. You learn risk management & safety techniques to make accelerated dives up to 50 metres/165 feet using up to two gases.

Conducted over a period of at least three days, Tec 50 primarily focuses on mission planning and team diving considerations. It comprises three knowledge development sections, classroom sessions, and a minimum of four open water dives.

Building on your training, you focus further on risk management; learn to think like a technical diver and handle emergencies. You also learn the cognitive and motor skills necessary to be a safe technical diver.

Upon certification, PADI Tec 50 divers are qualified to make unlimited accelerated decompression dives using standardized technical diving equipment. 

At SEI, technical diving courses are taught using a mix of classroom presentations, theory discussions, & in-water training, leading up to open water dives. An ideal course schedule goes as follows –

Day 1 (8.30am–5pm): Classroom presentation & decompression theory discussion; equipment & gas considerations; risk management & pool training

Days 2 & 3 (7am-3pm): Open water dives including qualifying dive, debrief & further remedial training if required.

Once a course is booked, we assign e-learning materials at the earliest to help you complete theory sections at your pace & convenience, prior to arrival at the dive centre. This is highly recommended as it also allows us to allocate more time for in-water training.

Your understanding of decompression theory & diving safety is paramount for this course.

Technical courses are performance-based & not time-based. This means, the duration of the course depends on the time it takes you for to master skills & additional training days may be required, if necessary.

  • The course can be conducted in standard recreational equipment or on sidemount.
  • The participant should be a certified sidemount diver with at least 10 sidemount dives or should have completed the Tec 40 & Tec 45 Courses in sidemount
  • The course can be combined with the Tec 40 & Tec 45 Courses
  • It is strongly recommended that no flights be undertaken for at least 24 hours after the last dive
  • We do not provide accommodation, pick-up & drop services either from hotel or dive centre. However, we can assist in all bookings for the same, through our partner companies.
