In the military, training is the most important aspect of battle-preparedness and Gemini brings that same mindset to the wind industry. All of our technicians are trained thoroughly so that they may take their already developed safety and troubleshooting skills and transition into the wind industry.
Our clients demand the best technicians in the industry, therefore we rely on state-of-the-art Airstreams Renewables (www.air-streams.com) to provide expert safety and wind turbine training. Through an active partnership with Airstreams, our techs graduate with an OSHA-10 certification, tower-rescue certification, Advanced Wind Turbine Technician Certification and a firm understanding of turbine operation and schematics.
