Which course

[nathan90 0]

Hi all. 
 

I am looking at doing a course. Just quick question to see if I did a IRATA course would I still go in to the wind turbine industry or would I have to do a different course for this. Hoping to do a course after all this covid has ended and get on the look for a job in the industry.

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Getting into the wind industry isn't as simple as getting a rope access Level 1 certificate. Depending on whether or not you'd be working onshore or offshore, you'd need a suite of GWO qualifications to get you out there.

A major advantage of having a rope access ticket is that you'll be able to pick work up outside the wind industry, so you'd maximise the chances of finding work whilst getting your foot in the door.
