Career and Technical Education received a grant to bring Global Wind Organization (GWO) Basic Technical Training (BTT) to RCSJ!
The GWO Basic Technical Training course is the standard for technical work in wind turbine generators. RCSJ Career and Technical Education offers our clients the premiere BTT experience with state-of-the-art equipment and technical leadership. Our BTT equipment, designed in Denmark, consists of 3 stands combining the full scope of all GWO BTT modules.
The BTT curriculum will enable both onshore and offshore wind technicians to perform basic mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic tasks with the supervision of an experienced technician. Not only will delegates gain awareness of the risks at hand while performing these tasks, but they will also learn to mitigate and control such hazards as well.
Upon completion, delegates will obtain the following skills in each module including: Mechanical, Electrical, Hydraulic, Bolt Tightening and Installation.
Mechanical
Solve basic mechanical tasks responsibly by using safe working procedures and the correct PPE. Includes mechanical concepts and specialized wind energy tool usage and instruction.
Electrical
Solve basic electrical tasks responsibly by using safe working procedures and the correct PPE. Includes introductory electrical principles and electrical systems within the wind sector.
Hydraulic
Solve basic hydraulic tasks responsibly by using safe working procedures and the correct PPE. Includes basic operating principles of fluid power systems, interpretation of diagrams, and hydraulic systems within a wind turbine generator.
Bolt Tightening
Improve the safety and quality of bolt tightening using energy powered tools and accessories in the wind industry. This module covers both how to tighten bolts safely and correctly, and how to plan, document and review of bolt tightening tasks. The module prepares participants for company specific bolt tightening training, through scenario-based training.
Installation
The aim of this BTT Installation Module is to enable the participants to work safely with basic installation tasks under supervision in a wind turbine environment.
