On completion of training, participants will be able to climb a fixed ladder, use fall protection equipment, understand the hazards, risks and basic rescue techniques associated with working at height in a wind turbine generator. Participants will be trained to use a constant rate descender for self evacuation and rescue of a colleague. The training course is approved by the Global Wind Organisation and fully meets the requirements of the the Global Wind Organisation Basic Safety Training Standards Working at Heights Module

• GWO Manual Handling

GWO Manual Handling training course give the participants an awareness through theoretical and practical training to encourage positive manual handling behaviour and perform manual handling activities in a safe manner in the wind turbine industry/environment. The course approved by the Global Wind Organisation (GWO) and is designed for onshore and offshore wind turbines.

• GWO Fire Awareness

GWO Fire Awareness aims to give participants the basic knowledge and skills through theoretical and practical training to prevent fires, make initial and appropriate judgement when evaluating a fire, manage evacuation of personnel to ensure all are safely evacuated and accounted for in the event of an unmanageable fire, and, if it is judged to be safe, to efficiently extinguish an initial fire by using basic hand held fire fighting equipment. The course approved by the Global Wind Organisation (GWO) and is designed for onshore and offshore wind turbines.

• GWO First Aid

GWO First Aid aims to equip participants with the knowledge and skills to effectively administer first aid in the remote wind turbine environments. The course approved by the Global Wind Organisation (GWO) and is designed for personnel working on onshore and offshore wind turbines.
