     Steven,
       We do provide the safety basics as part of our wind training course.  However, the safety aspects we teach are very basic and cover most professionals involved in the design, construction, and installation processes.  For wind turbine maintenance technicians complete, we would recommend a more in depth height safety training course.

    We do not provide official job assistance, although we have frequently referred students to job openings with our partners and customers. We have many great hiring success stories.

    Additionally, we encourage you to look at the class as a networking event with the other attendees.
