6.3 Wind turbine environment explained

What is a wind turbine training environment? To apply what you have learned, e.g., during a course, is a learning process of its own. This process is facilitated by identical elements comparing the training environment and the course participants’ working environment. Thus, identical elements enhance the application of what you have learned - The more identical elements, the merrier. As training provider your goal should be to achieve training facilities and a training environment with as many identical elements to a real wind turbine working environment possible. In addition, “training as you work”, i.e., executing training end-to-end the way course participants should perform in practice, enhances real work behaviour. So how do you “train as you work” and design a training environment with a high degree of identical elements? Depending on the course participant’s job and tasks in the wind industry, many technicians work in the wind turbine tower and nacelle – during pre-assembly, erection, commissioning and troubleshooting, or service of the wind turbine. For access up/down the tower, the tower is in general fitted with ladder sections provided with a vertical fall protection system, and tower section platforms with ladder hatches fitted with certified
