The GWO Advanced Rescue Training (ART) course is designed to enable participants to perform rescue operations in wind turbine environments, including both team-based and single-rescuer scenarios. Using industry-standard equipment and methods, this training exceeds the baseline skills taught in the GWO Basic Safety Training (BST) Working at Height module.
Participants will gain hands-on experience and theoretical knowledge to safely access and evacuate injured personnel from challenging turbine locations, such as the hub, nacelle, tower, basement, and inside blade areas.
This course also forms the basis for the GWO BST ART Refresher, which maintains competency through regular re-certification.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
After completing the GWO Advanced Rescue Training Combined course, participants will be able to:
- Apply rescue methods beyond those covered in BST Working at Heights
- Assess and plan rescue operations from wind turbine generator (WTG) components
- Use rescue stretchers, anchor points, and descent/rescue devices effectively
- Perform casualty rescues from the hub, spinner, inside blade, nacelle, tower, and basement
- Operate independently or in a team to carry out entry-type and evacuation-type rescues
COURSE MODULES
- Hub, Spinner and Inside Blade Rescue (HSIBR)
- Nacelle, Tower, and Basement Rescue (NTBR)
- Single Rescuer: Hub, Spinner and Inside Blade Rescue (SR:HSIBR)
- Single Rescuer: Nacelle, Tower and Basement Rescue (SR:NTBR)
- Modules HSIBR + SR. HSIBR and NTBR+ SR.NTBR can be completed independently, allowing learners to tailor their training to their specific needs.
Target Audience:
This course is designed for:
- Anyone requiring re-certification through the GWO BST ART Refresher to maintain operational readiness and compliance
- Wind industry professionals responsible for turbine rescue operations
- Technicians and supervisors involved in installation, servicing, or maintenance
