Lovely staff, all were very friendly. Our tutor was very knowledgeable and if he didn’t know the answer to anything we asked, he would Google it for us right in front of you, but seriously, Ryan Potts was fantastic he knew his stuff and was very patient with all of us, especially Toby. Also, lunch was always on time for the fat kids 10 out of 10 effort

I’ve trained at many GWO training centres over the years, and there are two which stand out for me, which is Safer at Work and 360 Safety in Ayr. Both for the same reasons, friendly, warm feel on arrival from Jane and the team, very knowledgeable instructors who focus on the candidates and their needs based on skills and experience, ensuring you get the best learning experience possible.
I’ll definitely be back as this place is a hidden gem amongst the other big training centres in the north east.

Great place to get your GWO Certs. Mick is a spot-on trainer. He puts you at ease and is a great support. All our needs were well taken care of by Jane; she went above and beyond, lovely lass. E-learning I found to be really user-friendly. Thanks, Safer At Work!

It’s always a pleasure doing training courses with Safer at Work. As usual, Jane has been extremely helpful and friendly throughout the process. I’ve just completed my GWO Sea Survival Refresher, and the training was excellent—well-structured, effective, and delivered to a high standard. The Gateshead training centre is a great local facility, and I highly recommend it. Thanks.

It’s been a brilliant course from start to finish with all content covered thoroughly and professionally and all questions answered with care and enthusiasm. All the staff have been helpful to no end and the instructor Ryan was brilliant at explaining and demonstrating the processes of blade repair in a way that would be relatable to all participants of varying capabilities. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting to get into the industry.

The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable. I attended for a 2 day GWO course and thoroughly enjoyed the relaxed and positive approach to instruction taken by Mick and Warren. As well as the instruction, candidates are well looked after and provided for by Jane, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Safer at Work to anyone looking for good quality training

Embarking on a new career path can be both daunting and intimidating. However, RFS has simplified and facilitated the entire process. Their exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable staff, coupled with their brilliant facilities, have made this transition remarkably smooth. I eagerly anticipate completing the course and potentially spending many years with RFS, growing and advancing my career within the wind industry.
