Energy industry training company Falck Nutec says it has become the only firm with a site with full approval to run two renewables body backed sets of courses.
Falck Nutec Teesside can now run all five Global Wind Organisation (GWO) training modules and both of Renewable UK’s wind industry specific training courses after achieving approval to deliver the GWO Basic Safety Training standard.
The RenewableUK available programmes are: Working at Height & Rescue Training (WAHR) for wind turbines and Marine Safety Training (MST).
Lisa Bryan, business development manager at Falck Nutec said: “We’re very pleased to have been awarded this prestigious accreditation.
“This will allow us to provide an even higher level of training to offshore personnel, and be increasingly responsive to new innovations, and up-skilling, within the industry.
“This will be particularly relevant to offshore windfarm industry personnel as we move towards the construction of Round 3 Offshore installations in 2014 and beyond. “This coincides with an increase in offshore personnel needing specialist training, which also reflects the increasingly highly skilled nature of the industry.
“As well as being the only provider at the moment with approval to deliver all of the courses, we will be able to deliver everything at the same location, ‘under one roof’, in our purpose built training facility in Teesside.”
