WINDA is an acronym for Wind Industry Database and is operated by Global Wind Organisation (GWO)

WINDA is a global database designed with the primary purpose of assuring the status of GWO certified Training Providers and Course Participants who have attended GWO certified training courses.

WINDA operates with five user profiles:

• Training Providers are able to upload records of participants and use WINDA to complement existing site management systems.
• Employers are able to use WINDA to verify the current training status of participants.
• Participants are able to access personal verified information on the status and validity of training courses completed, e.g. to demonstrate their training status to current and future employers.
• Certification Bodies can register their ISO certifications and link to auditors and training providers via WINDA
• Auditors can register audit certificates with GWO and link to certification bodies and training providers directly using WINDA

The WINDA/Participant ID is the course participant’s unique personal identification number.

All course participants must provide their WINDA/Participant ID to their training provider, if they wish to have their training accepted by GWO and its members. Only participants will receive a WINDA/Participant ID when they create a profile in WINDA.
