Get in WIND Energy Training Quicker with REcognition

“The GWO REcognition Program enables college wind energy programs to undergo a structured gap analysis against applicable GWO training standards, such as Basic Safety Training (BST), Basic Technical Training (BTT), and Advanced Rescue Training (ART).

As part of the process, the college’s program is evaluated for alignment with GWO standards, and any identified gaps are addressed through supplemental training provided by the REcognition provider.

Upon successful completion of the program and any required gap training, students are awarded official GWO certificates via the WINDA system—enhancing their qualifications for careers in the global wind energy industry.

• Benefits for Colleges: The program gains international recognition, attracts more students, and strengthens industry partnerships.

• Benefits for students: They graduate with globally recognized GWO certifications, improving job prospects and reducing the need for duplicate training after hire.

• Benefits for Employers: They gain access to a pipeline of job-ready graduates who meet GWO standards and require less onboarding and safety training.
