GWO EFA - Enhanced First Aid

The Global Wind Organisation (GWO) Enhanced First Aid Training is a new standard for training in the wind energy industry. The training includes advanced rescue assistance for locations where traditional rescue is not available within a reasonable time. EFA should enable the participant to support and care for a colleague in distress, with improved and enhanced first aid knowledge.

Target group

The programme is aimed, for example, at wind power technicians, repairers or electricians working in remote areas where traditional rescue assistance is difficult due to distance and access.

Upon completion of EFA training, the trainee will be able to administer safe, effective and immediate life-saving and enhanced first aid measures. The learner will also be able to provide assistance in remote areas, using advanced emergency equipment and medical teleconsultation.

The purpose of the C2 GWO-EFA, is to enable the participant to support and provide ongoing care of a colleague, while waiting for a professional rescue team to arrive.

C2 GWO-EFA is a 3-day training programme conducted according to international GWO standards, with our partner Lifelink On Call.

The programme is also offered with two additional options: Telemedicine + Simalation training.

Examination takes place through both practical and oral exercises, continuous evaluation of the student takes place during the course days. In case of uncertainty, the student has the right to appeal the evaluation. This must be done in writing to the Training Manager.
