The CCR Hypoxic Trimix certification entitles the holder to dive autonomously with an equally- or more-qualified buddy, on dives using specialised diving equipment and procedures to depths of either 80m or 100m.

The Hypoxic Trimix 80m certification is the same as the 100m certification, with one exception: if conditions do not permit, or the students cannot make the deepest dives, divers may become certified at 80m after the first four core open water training dives.
After developing experience, and with an equally- or more-qualified buddy, a diver qualified to 100m may dive to depths in excess of 100m.
