The GWO (Global Wind Organisation) focuses on ensuring that wind energy workers around the world are trained according to the highest safety standards. This is crucial because working in the wind industry, particularly on wind turbines, involves potentially dangerous conditions such as working at heights, dealing with electrical systems and exposure to harsh environments.
At 3t Training Services, we provide GWO accredited courses that will give you the skills to progress in your career within the wind sector. Whether you are new to the field or an experienced professional, our courses are tailored to suit all experience levels and are guided by industry experts.
