      Analysing the Data

1. Candidates must successfully carry out minimum 2 individual O'Dive Doppler readings.

2. Candidates must satisfactorily complete 2 individual O'Dive Doppler Analysis. This can be done on readings obtained from themselves or team members post dive or if no dives are carried out can be done on predefined readings included in the powerpoint.

3. Satisfactorily complete the TDI O’Dive Doppler Decompression Technician written examination

4. Demonstrate understanding of the O’Dive Doppler Sensor and O’Dive App

Upon successful completion of this course, graduates may engage in O’Dive Doppler readings post dive, without direct supervision.
