With a WITPAC certification, you’ll be able to take your career to the next level by becoming part of the cutting-edge wind industry. Designed for transport drivers, pilot car operators, steerpersons, and other related professionals, this course focuses on skills and safety practices specific to wind turbine transportation.
WITPAC uses blended learning. Half of the training is a self-directed online course, and the other half is a traditional instructor-led class.
Before class, make sure you understand the requirements for WITPAC certification.
You’ll start by taking the self-directed online modules, which familiarize you with the basics of the training.
You’ll need to pass the online prep exam before the day of your class. (Unlimited attempts allowed.)
Next, you will attend the full-day instructor-led session where you will review the material with an expert instructor and your classmates.
At the end of the instructor-led session, you will be given the multiple-choice, open-book knowledge exam.
Upon successful completion, you will receive either a WITPAC certification card or proof of completion, which is valid for 3 years.
WITPAC classes are offered in person and online. Choose the training that’s right for you!

If you do not hold one of these prior qualifications, you may still participate in this course. Instead of a certification card, you will receive a proof of completion.
