INTEGRATED
CAVE DIVER PROGRAM
(Duration: 7 Days)
Minimum Prerequisites: : Advanced
Open Water Certification or equivalent, competence in buoyancy
control and a minimum of 50 to 100 logged open water dives
An alternative to the listed "modular
process" is the increasingly popular "Integrated
Full Cave Diver Program". Participants who chose to complete
their cave training in an uninterrupted manor are able to
fulfill the requirements for Full Cave Diver certification
in a minimum of seven days of training.
This program covers the course requirements
of all the modular programs combined. Full cave diving equipment
(double tanks) is utilized from the start. While maintaining
a progression of skill development from basic to more complex,
this agenda effectively completes "Full Cave Diver"
requirements without pause. For qualifying open-water divers
who are traveling from considerable distances and have limited
time, this program is particularly applicable.
| Skills training
in the Full Cave Course includes, but is not limited to:
|
 |
body positioning
(trim) |
 |
buoyancy control |
 |
emergency procedures |
 |
line following |
 |
propulsion techniques |
 |
use of reels |
 |
jumps and gaps |
 |
Ys and Ts |
 |
circuits and traverses |
 |
restrictions |
 |
decompression diving protocol |
 |
dissimilar tank volumes |
 |
silting |
 |
entanglement |
 |
disorientation |
 |
task loading |
 |
psychology in cave diving |
 |
equipment modifications |
 |
problem solving |
After an open-water evaluation and cave diving
techniques and orientation dive has been completed, a minimum
of fifteen full cave dives are performed in a minimum of six
different cave systems over a period of no less than seven
days. Duration can be as long
as eight days or more based on student progression.
Additional days are prorated based on normal course fees.
Consistent with all of Speleotechs
programs, knowledge development takes place in a non-stressful
and relaxed atmosphere. During the progression of the course,
academic proficiency is measured through the completion of
written exams.
Certification for this course is available
from NSS-CDS, NACD, and IANTD.
