Courses

Here at Tech Dive NZ, we offer a range of dive training courses from GUE, TDI and PADI. We purposefully offer a small number of courses that can be delivered in line with our training philosophy, which allows us to maintain high training standards.

Course Selection

Whilst we only offer a small number of courses, we understand that it is often a difficult task to work out which course is right for you. Ultimately, we teach our courses to enable you to get more from your diving and reach your diving goals.

To help you work out which courses are of most interest to you, have a look at the course advice that we offer, or take a look at our workshops that give you the opportunity to get a taster of our courses whilst developing new skills at the same time. We offer a money back satisfaction guarentee on our Skills Workshops!

Course Prices

Prices for each course are provided in the individual course outlines. You will note that our course prices are structured on the basis of the number of students enrolled in each course. When there are fewer students in a course, this allows you significantly more instructor time to maximise the outcomes. You will note that our courses are more expensive than others, this is a reflection of the quality of instruction provided. If you are just seeking the certification card for the cheapest price possible, we suggest you look elsewhere.

Training Agencies

We offer courses from a number of training agencies that complement each other and provide different options to pursue your diving goals.

PADI, the Professional Association of Diving Instructors, are the largest dive training organisation, offering both recreational scuba training and technical diving courses through DSAT. The PADI courses that we offer are those that we believe can add value to your diving activities and act as important stepping stones towards more advanced diving activities.

We also offer a number of GUE courses either through our in house capability or through affiliate instructors from overseas. GUE’s vibrant history includes both recreational excursions and aggressive exploration diving. This experience has led GUE and likeminded divers around the world to embrace the need for greater diving proficiency. These enhanced skills provide greater enjoyment and less stress while also preserving fragile diving environments.

Finally, we offer TDI courses to provide a rigorous introduction to technical diving. TDI, Technical Diving International, have a range of courses from entry level technical programmes through to Advanced Trimix and Closed Circuit Rebreather courses.
