Gain a recognised qualifications in Performing Engineering Operations at NVQ Level 2 and NC Engineering Systems Level 6, with a special focus on wind turbine technology, that prepare you for a rewarding career in the ever-evolving Wind Generation sector.
If you don't have formal qualifications but have life experience, then we’ll also consider you for a place, so please do apply. Explore the world of wind turbine technology and engineering with our course. Here's a glimpse of what you may look at on the course: study components, functions, and operations of wind turbines.
These qualifications are for those who work or would like to work in the Power industry and are available for job roles from wind turbine to meter installation. They include qualifications at levels 2 & 3 and some SCQF level 5 & 6. More SCQF Power Engineering can be found in scheme 2343.
It might give you an advantage if your course includes the opportunity to get work experience through summer internships or a year in industry. You could do a college course, which could help you to get a trainee job with a wind turbine engineering company. You could apply to do an Engineering Technician Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship.
There are no restrictions on entry to the qualifications, although it is expected that candidates will present through the Wind turbine apprenticeship route. Candidates should not be registered if they hold from City & Guilds or another awarding body a qualification of a similar level and within the same content area.
You'll also need safety training to work on wind turbines. This could include sea survival if you're working offshore. Your employer will let you know what's required. Discover the day to day tasks you’ll do in this role. As a wind turbine technician you'll be making sure that wind turbines run efficiently.
