Wind Turbine Climbing Safety and Rescue

Course Description

Wind Turbine Technicians are asked to do their work at height. With that comes the need for training on climbing techniques, fall protection, rescue of an ill or injured climber, “bail-out” options, standards knowledge, equipment uses and logging, documentation, PPE Inspection, training requirements and refresher training. The course covers the specific equipment, harnesses, fall protection lanyards, secondary fall protection lines, anchoring challenges, edge protection, job briefings, ascending needs, logging and documentation of all equipment and training.

These courses are over 80% hands-on.  We have been in the business a long time and realize the best way to learn these demanding skills is to actually do it.  These courses are fast moving, dynamic and interactive.  We have small classes by design.  This gives each student more time to actually run through the hands-on training evolutions and have direct interaction with the instructors and other students.

Our instructors are on many of the actual industry standard writing committees.  This is an incredible honor and learning opportunity.  We also serve on actual rescue teams and fire departments around the country.  This gives the students the ability to learn from the best… that actually do the jobs we train.

Our TRS training follows, meets and exceeds the OSHA, ANSI, GWO, NFPA industrial standards as the pertain to wind turbine tower climbing, fall protection and rescue involving an ill, injured or post fall climber in and on wind turbines.

These courses will teach students necessary skills to work and rescue at height on lifelines / with backup systems, affect certain job/rescue skills / “bailout” options at height, review, understand, problem solve and perform situation rescue operations.  The course shall include extensive hands-on teaching and problem-solving exercises. Testing includes skills proficiency, scenario-based performance evaluation of the class and the required written test.
