SDI Advanced Diver - Does Computer Nitrox Count?

[MrVegas]

According to the SDI Advanced Diver info, you have to: "complete four SDI, TDI, or ERDI Specialty Diver courses or equivalent; only 1 course without dives, may be credited towards the SDI Advanced Diver development program, with the exception of SDI Computer Nitrox."

I guess the question is if I already did Computer Nitrox, do I need three more specialty courses or four more to obtain SDI Advanced Diver? (In addition to 25 dives, which I have).

Just curious, I thought the language in the manual was a little confusing.

Yes, the computer nitrox counts. So you just need 3 more specialties.

I did my SDI Advanced last season. Although nitrox didn’t count for mine. I did wreck, nav, deep, and night.

That was a quick response! (Thanks!)
