As the GWO Safety & Training Forum & Awards 2026 approaches, learn more about our member-led session on going beyond basic safety training.

The wind industry is evolving and so are its training needs. Whether you're a Training Provider expanding beyond basic safety, a training centre adding specialised training to your offering, or an employer or worker curious about the possibilities within the growing range of training standards, this year’s GWO Safety & Training Forum and Awards has the bespoke session for you.
By joining our "Beyond Basic Safety" session, you’ll gain insights into the growing scope and complexity of work covered by GWO standards and how GWO training supports specialised career pathways in the wind industry.
Beginning with a discussion of what’s next in the range of GWO training standards, you’ll learn about the evolving High Voltage Standard and upcoming Enhanced Electrical Training Standard as examples of how specialist skills training support the competencies required for dedicated work roles.
Featuring internal and external perspectives, this session brings the GWO Training Development team into dialogue with the employers who deliver training from across the GWO training standards portfolio. You’ll hear from Heiko Post, Senior Expert, Global Training Excellence at ENERCON Global Service and Konstantin Pasternak, Head of Site Training (Offshore) at SGRE, as they lend their expertise in helping you to make sense of current and future training options.
Whether you’re a Forum first-timer or seasoned attendee, one thing is for certain. If you’re curious about what it takes to go beyond basic safety and if you’re serious about collaborating with your peers to explore the emerging challenges and opportunities for the future of the wind and solar workforce, then this is the event for you.
Join us in Paris to drive the dialogue.
