The course aims to continue what has been learned in the Overhead Fundamentals course. The program includes a theoretical part which deals with environmental assessment, risk identification, dive planning (consumption, mix volumes to be disposed and related emergencies), techniques and procedures for entering a wreck. It is also an analysis of the construction plan of the boats and related types. Then there are sessions of dry laboratories, in confined waters and finally wreck diving.
