GWO Basic Technical Training V6.0
2021-04-01_BTT_V06
Training providers shall have a procedure that requires participants to sign a statement stating that they are medically fit to participate in the safety training, that they do not suffer from any medical illness, and that they are not under the influence of any narcotic substance or alcohol. The Requirements for Training Providers Annex 2: Medical Self-Assessment Form shall be used if no other equivalent procedure is in place. Participants’ signatures testifying to their medical fitness shall be collected prior to the start of the Basic Technical Training course. Furthermore, participants shall have created a personal participant profile in WINDA, and provide their own WINDA ID prior to completing the BTT training. There is only a prerequisite to attend the Installation module, hence, the participant must have completed the Mechanical module before attending the Installation training. There are no prerequisites for the remaining modules, but some sort of practical mechanical or electrical maintenance background would be useful. Furthermore, personnel in the wind service industry must be able to read and write to a sufficient standard to be able to carry out instructions and complete the required documentation. It is an advantage if participants are able to read, speak and write English.
5.8 Physical Demands
BTT modules do not have any specific expected physical demands.
However, if there is any doubt regarding the medical fitness of any participant, the training provider shall stop training the participant, and seek a physician’s advice.
Note: Practical exercises shall be designed and delivered solely to meet this standard, and shall not place any physical or mental demands on the participants other than those required to meet this standard.
