Technical Diving International (TDI): Pioneering Safe and Structured Training for Extreme Divers

TDI stands for Technical Diving International. It is a non-profit organization that sets standards and certifies divers in the field of technical diving. TDI was founded in 1994 by a group of experienced technical divers who wanted to create a safe and structured training program for other divers who were interested in exploring the more extreme depths and environments of the underwater world.
TDI offers a range of courses and certifications for divers who want to explore beyond the standard recreational diving limits, including courses in Trimix diving (diving with a mix of oxygen, nitrox, and helium), rebreather diving, and cave diving. TDI also provides training in advanced techniques such as decompression procedures, gas management, and emergency response.
TDI is known for its rigorous training standards and its focus on safety and risk management. The organization has a strong reputation within the technical diving community and is widely respected for its expertise and professionalism.
