After the successful conclusion of the certification process in June 2014, OffTEC has now fulfilled all the requirements for the Basic Safety Training Standards set by the Global Wind Organisation (GWO).
Bureau Veritas has accredited OffTEC as a provider of GWO safety training courses in first aid, manual handling, fire awareness, working at heights and sea survival. With the opening of the Maritime Training Centre (MTC) it will now be possible to hold all GWO training courses at the main OffTEC base in Enge-Sande.
The application of the GWO training criteria aims to teach personnel, and particularly those working in the offshore wind industry, the skills and knowledge needed to be able to work safely. OffTEC operates a state of the art training infrastructure and employs experienced, qualified instructors in order to meet the highest safety standards for each course.
The GWO can be booked with immediate effect as individual courses or as one-week teaching blocks, whereby OffTEC helps its customers to reduce the expense involved in organisation, travel and logistics.
