GWO BST Refresher Offshore

The GWO Scenario Based Refresher Training is designed to provide personnel to refreshes the basic skills that will enable them to work in a safe manner in the wind industry and to meet emergency response training requirements for personnel in the global wind industry. It is designed to accommodate personnel working both onshore and offshore.

Delegates must be demonstrably medically fit and capable of fully participating. Delegates may not exceed the weight limit of 124kg due to the weight limitations of the equipment which is used during the training. Must be in possession of a valid basic GWO training certificate.

In the 4 day GWO Scenario Based Refresher Training delegates update the learning goals from the GWO Working at Heights, First Aid, Manual Handling, Fire Awareness and Sea Survival into a single 4 day scenario orientated training. In WTG relevant scenarios delegates will experience the correlation between the various safety training aspects (e.g. how to prepare for survival at sea when needing to evacuate a nacelle because a fire has started). The objective for this SBRT is to review and build on previously gained knowledge and skills through some theoretical but mostly scenario based practical training. WINDA is the global database which is used by the Global Wind Organisation (GWO). WINDA will make verification of training possible for training providers and employers. Delegates will have ownership of their own training records in WINDA. Participants will no longer be issued with paper certificates. RelyOnNutec will upload a digital record of the GWO certificate in WINDA. If you are participating in a GWO training course you must register for a delegate profile in WINDA. After registration you will receive a WINDA ID. You need this WINDA ID to book the training. Without a WINDA ID we are not able to produce certificates.
