The training GWO Sea Survival E-learning (Global Wind Organisation) is intended for everyone working in the offshore wind industry in which safety is key. During this course, you will learn how to proceed if there is a possibility of danger during offshore activities.

During this GWO E-learning Sea Survival training we work with a blended learning method. You do the theory at home in 3 hours and then follow only 0.5 day at our training center. This way you save 0.5 days! At the training center you will do the exercise in our swimming pool, to make the exercise as realistic as possible. Because of the realistic exercises in this GWO Sea Survival E-learning, everything will be remembered better and the delegate is well prepared in case of risky situations. After passing the GWO Sea Survival E-learning, you will receive the same certificate as the GWO Sea Survival in full classroom.

    To maintain the original certification date, a certificate or training record can be renewed up to two months prior to expiry.
