GWO Basic Technical
Training ( BTT )
Course Overview –
GWO BTT is an entry-level course that enables participants to perform basic hydraulic, mechanical and electrical tasks in a wind turbine environment under the supervision of an experienced technician.
Participants must be registered on the Global Wind Industry Records Database (WINDA) before starting the course. This allows potential employers to verify your accreditation.
The course takes place at Advanced Blade Repair Services' specialized center in Sunderland. Feel free to contact our team if you need assistance in finding us.
The Global Wind Organisation (GWO) Basic Technical Training standard consists of three modules which are:
