GENERAL REQUIREMENTS TO GWO BASIC TECHNICAL TRAINING

Upon completion of the Global Wind Organisation (GWO) Basic Technical Training (BTT) Delegates will possess an awareness of the hazards encountered when working on hydraulic, mechanical and electrical systems and how to control and mitigate these hazards, preparing candidates for working both on and off shore in the wind power industry.

These training modules can be delivered independently of one another or as stand-alone training.

Overview

The GWO Basic Technical Training is divided into the following three Modules:

• Hydraulic
• Mechanical
• Electrical

Target Group

The Basic Technical Training modules are targeted at candidates who have no previous experience of hydraulic, mechanical or electrical systems but may also be used to up skill candidates who have some knowledge but not of their application in wind turbines.

Aims and Objectives

This BTT Training shall enable Delegates to be able to perform basic hydraulic, mechanical and electrical tasks under the supervision of an experienced technician.

This course will not make the Delegate a trained person who is allowed to perform hydraulic, mechanical or electrical work without supervision.
