Both courses focus on first aid training tailored to the wind industry, but the key difference lies in their depth and duration.
GWO First Aid is a 1-day course that covers essential first aid skills required for working in the sector. Whereas the GWO Enhanced First Aid is a 3-day course that provides a more in depth understanding, covering advanced techniques and extended care for remote environments.
While both courses ensure workers are prepared for emergencies, the enhanced version is designed for those who may need to provide prolonged medical assistance in challenging offshore or remote locations.
The choice between the two courses depends on client requirements, the site and whether you work onshore or offshore.
For those working in the offshore industry, the Enhanced First Aid course is typically required, as it provides advanced training suited for remote and high risk environments.
Certification for both courses lasts two years, delegates to remain certified must renew their certification prior to the expiry date.
