Our learning methods
From virtual to onsite: Different trainings for different needs
Classroom and virtual trainings
At Siemens Gamesa we offer a variety of learning methods matching different qualification needs: For high complexity tasks, we recommend our classroom trainings. Our qualified instructors execute them in one of our training centers or as onsite training allowing your staff to learn in a safe environment. In the classroom, we not only teach theory, but also conduct practical exercises
Virtual trainings are performed in one of our training centers or as onsite training using a variety of different learning technologies
E-learning and onsite trainings
Our low-threshold budget offer for basic learning content is the e-learning portal. Participants can learn about correct procedures for example when it comes to lifting operations, transfer to a wind turbine offshore, learn about international safety standards and much more. Your employees do not have to travel to attend the courses, and what’s more: They can perform the training during low activity periods on site. E-learning is a very cost-efficient way of developing competences.
Onsite training
We bring the training to you
Instead of having your technicians travelling to the training center, we can also come to your site. This means you are saving travel costs as only one person instead of several must take a flight, as well as all the other travelling costs and administration expenses (for example applying for visas). “We saved around £3,000-£5,000 from having on-site training delivered in the UK”, says an onsite customer from the UK.
“We have received multiple on-site trainings, such as the Advanced Rescue training, and all have been quick and easy to coordinate and execute”, says Another customer from Australia
A few facts about the on-site training concept
- If the training requires specialized equipment or assets, a training center will provide these in close coordination with the site.
- All trainings are executed by highly experienced and competent Siemens Gamesa trainers, which ensures quality and uniform training that is in compliance with the highest industry standards.
- We can bring some equipment, the majority of it should be provided by the recipient, including potentially a turbine.
If you want to know more about the on-site training option, please contact one of our training centers
Onsite training allows our technicians to get trained in the comfort of familiar surroundings on technology that they will be required to work on, with the added benefit of not spending time and money on flights, accommodation, visas and allowances. This in turn means that our techs are far more productive with no time lost due to travelling – all-in-all a much more efficient solution.

Our trainings
More than 100 trainings: Safety first – technology also
From First Aid to Highly Technical Trainings
Concerning safety, we offer basic and general trainings such as “GWO First Aid”, which aims to theoretically and practically train situations that can occur in the wind turbine. More specialized courses such as “GWO Advanced Rescue Training” are for example crucial for technicians who work in special work zones on the turbine.Our technical courses are also executed with a high focus on safety both during the training session as well as the work on site.
From turbine installation to trouble shooting
The technical trainings are divided into basic technical training and advanced technical training. Basic technical training is available to everyone, while there are restrictions on the advanced technical training. In our different customer orientation courses, external customers with an active contract receive information concerning the technology of either geared turbines or direct drive turbines.
