About the Safety & Training Forum
Building A Community of Safety & Training
About the GWO Safety & Training Forum
Our goal is to bring together the world’s largest wind industry manufacturers and owner operators with our community of training providers, certification bodies instructors, and auditors for a day of inspiration, industry insight, networking, and dialog.
As a not for profit industry association, GWO understands how important it is to be on the ground with our community, where we can all look one another in the eye and work together for the good of our industry. The GWO Safety & Training Forum is designed for just that, with a program that will activate and engage you on the issues that matter to your community. Secure your place at the Forum and you'll get to meet with partners, colleagues and customers in an environment where open discussion and debate are our priority.

About the Awards - Returning in 2024
The GWO Safety & Training Awards were created to shine a light on the teams of instructors and support staff who make safety in wind possible. The GWO Safety & Training Awards is the world’s first program of its kind recognizing the skills and impact of training providers and instructors keeping the wind energy workforce safe on site
The success of GWO’s community of over 530 training providers is always something to celebrate. Building on the initial Safety & Training Awards of 2021, in 2022 we continued to shine a light on the winning GWO training teams and individuals. Read here about the winners of the 2022 edition. The Awards will return again in 2024.
