STL, which already jointly operates a growing number of training facilities here in the UK as well as in Germany and the US, provides innovation and technical support for bespoke training programmes. STL was one of the first companies to gain RenewablesUK and GWO approval in 2011 and its experience, expertise and commitment is highly regarded.

Bob Dickens – MD at Safety Technology, says: “We are delighted to be working in partnership with 8point8 as this will enable us to combine our considerable experience and expertise and to jointly offer a wider range of training courses and excellent facilities in an ideal location to support the growing wind energy market on the East cost of the U.K.”

The ever-expanding centre tailors course content to suit customer requirements, whilst ensuring safety is never compromised.

The partnership doesn’t intend to rest on its laurels either. Plans are already in place to add IRATA training, sea survival courses and bespoke training built to meet the specific requirements of individual clients and sectors.
