Dumfries Campus
This highly successful programme will develop your skills, confidence and awareness of all the inter-related technologies both mechanical and electrical to allow you to develop a career within the Windfarm/Turbine industry. It will also aim to develop your study skills as a learner.
This is a focused program devised by employers, the Energy Skills Partnership and associated colleges.
The course is designed to teach you the key technologies, together with the associated underpinning knowledge relating to how wind turbines function, generate electricity and connect to the grid. The programme also develops your practical engineering skills making you potentially work ready. The course also acts as the first year of a modern apprenticeship should you wish to pursue that route.
