Opening in July 2016, RelyOn Glasgow has quickly grown to become the central belt’s largest provider of marine, offshore and renewables safety training.

There are fantastic rail, road and air links to our GWO training centre in Clydebank, on the outskirts of Glasgow. Making us the premier choice for GWO training courses in Scotland.

The Global Wind Organisation (GWO) standards followed by RelyOn Glasgow are created by the industry, reflecting the risks wind technicians face at work.

GWO standards are established as contractual pre-requisite in the wind energy supply chain, helping align the safety training activities of all contractors.

Through adherence to these globally recognised standards, we can share risk information and expertise to create training standards that improve safety and build a competent workforce.
