GWO Entry Level Wind Technician Framework/ V3 2023-12-04
technicians within three core components of the wind energy value chain. Three entry level technician profiles are identified:
1.
pre-assembly
2.
installation
3.
service (operations & maintenance)
6. OVERVIEW
The goal of this framework is to provide clear routes into the wind industry that both recognises a person's existing skills and guides them towards the appropriate training for the different job profiles of wind technicians. The GWO Entry Level Wind Technician Framework will establish a transparent and valid set of standardised skills for entry level technician roles in the wind industry.
7. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The GWO Entry Level Wind Technician Framework shall ensure a comprehensive understanding of entry level requirements. It shall alleviate the continued pressure on costs and resources, reduce bottlenecks in training and provide a stable, competent entry level workforce. The GWO Entry Level Wind Technician Framework shall reduce recruitment constraints by providing fully pre-qualified entry level technicians. It will decrease training duplication and therefore reduce the pressure on both recruitment and training.
8. FRAMEWORK OVERVIEW
The standardised GWO Entry Level Technician Framework describes a set of recommended training that will be accepted by GWO members, with reference to three identified job profiles:
1.
Wind Technician; Pre-Assembly
2.
Wind Technician; Installation
3.
Wind Technician; Service Operation and Maintenance (O&M)
Each of the job profiles is accompanied by a list of training standards and their modules that GWO members have recommended as necessary. For detailed explanations of the training standard module contents themselves, please visit the GWO website www.globalwindsafety.org. The framework shows not only the recommended training but informs the individual/ educational establishment of the requirements; pre-requisites; learning objectives and length of each training module. Each job profile consists of recommended, task specific and company specific training. Individual profiles (largely depending on the task specific training) take between 8 and 20 days to complete.
