The IN05 course took me about 5 days to complete.

I highly recommend this course! I've never taken a course where there is audio accompanying all text. The audio integration made for easier learning and better comprehension.

I wish I had taken the courses at the beginning of my career.

This training is also incredibly useful for sourcing managers and even project managers who benefit from foundational knowledge of contracts for capital project construction.

Great introduction to the technical aspects of offshore wind.

The course was informative, with great materials and instructor videos which made complex topics easily understandable.

Sherry Kao
Sherry Kao Procurement Manager

I highly recommend the course due to the double value of both the UXO and GIS lessons.

What I found most valuable was the practical GIS map for a planned Offshore Wind Farm and associated offshore export and array cables.

I wish I had access to this when I first entered the industry.

The INO5 course content is very insightful for self-learning. It includes great illustrations and amazing animations.

The topics were well covered.

The downloadable report examples are very useful for continuing to learn and train. Accurate information was also shared to provide general knowledge on how to approach this market.

As someone new to offshore wind, the course provided a solid foundation and a great starting point in the sector.
