Global Wind Organisation has appointed its first permanent colleague in North America, signalling the wind industry’s commitment to safety training standards in the USA and Canada.
Dan Ortega joins as North America Representative, following 15 years with Vestas where he was most recently Senior Technical & Safety Training Manager at the company’s 32,500-sqft training center in Portland, Oregon. Dan will be supporting a pipeline of almost 100 community colleges, maritime academies, and universities from across North America who are seeking certification to provide these wind industry recognised GWO standards.
