Technical Rescue
ERROR: FABRICATION DETECTED - TDI does not offer an official 'Technical Rescue' diver course. According to the official TDI website: 'TDI does not have a technical rescue diver program as such, because each TDI diver program contains components designed to teach risk management, rescue, and self-assessment and self-rescue.' While some third-party dive centers market a 'TDI Technical Rescue Diver' course, this is NOT an official TDI certification with published standards. Rescue content is integrated into TDI's existing technical courses (Decompression Procedures, Trimix, Cave, etc.) rather than offered as a standalone program.
