Business of Nitrox

3rd of May
22nd of November 2010

This PADI course at instructor level is a must for all PADI instructors who still want an occupation in the dive industry tomorrow. It is already well known, that since it was published in most dive magazines that PADI & NRC (Nitrox & Rebreather Company) are cooperating and are forcing "NITROX" as the topic of the near future.

Together with the cooperation of the two institutions the "old" Nitrox specialty course has been changed completely. Now Nitrox can be included in the Open Water Diver course and also in the Advanced Open Water Diver course. To be able to link all these course PADI OWSI and higher of course have to be Nitrox instructor !

Due to the cooperation from PADI & NRC other dive organizations from now on might have difficulties in reference of Nitrox. NRC offers the best Nitrox knowledge and the most advanced gas logistics on the market. This knowledge along with the gas logistics will be exclusively provided to PADI dive centers only.

Subject of "Business of Nitrox" are the above described facts and how PADI dive centers and – instructors can use the market gap to their advantage.

Also explained during the course will be the physical and medical background in reference of decompression etc. and the positive effects of Nitrox while diving with it. Furthermore discussed will be: advantages and limitations of Nitrox, the new course structure of the Nitrox specialty, how Nitrox can be linked to the OWD and AOWD course, the new PADI Nitrox teaching material and the marketing of Nitrox courses. Explained in addition will be the different Nitrox filling methods, the PRO's and CON's of them, cost and benefit relations between the different filling methods and last but not least the PADI marketing concept for Nitrox 2004.

Participants of "Business of Nitrox" who are not yet Nitrox Instructor have the chance to become PADI Nitrox Instructor during the course – without extra charge !

In general this workshop is designed for all people interested in the topic Nitrox. It could be most helpful for the dive center crew who is in their daily business involved in advising customers and selling instructional courses to them.
