There is a bit of a refresher of the Adv Nx & Deco theory then quite a bit about the effects of trimix, dive planning and considerations for what can go wrong and how to deal with it.

On the in water stuff it was more aimed at problem solving and identifying areas that you needed to improve on rather than teaching new skills (you should be able to do shutdowns, have reasonable buoyance, etc beforehand). Though playing with a drop tank was new to me.

Foggy posted a write up of the course that I was on: The Malteasers Trip - caution its a long one
