Advanced Component
Theory Training
Advanced Component Theory Training will provide your people with the knowledge, skills and competencies of the technologies, components and systems used within a wind turbine.
Why Advanced Component Theory matters
Advanced Component Theory Training is the first step on the dwpa Competency Pathway. The training is delivered both on-site and remote live/virtual, depending of the number of participants.
Understanding the components and systems inside a wind turbine is essential for anyone working in the Wind Energy Industry. The Advanced Component Theory training gives you a complete overview of all key mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and electronic systems – from controllers and converters to communication and power systems – and explains how each element affects overall turbine performance and reliability.
Over five intensive days, your people will learn to identify components on system diagrams, interpret schematics, and assess the operational status of critical systems.
Whether your people are new to the industry or part of an experienced maintenance team, this course provides the foundational knowledge needed to diagnose issues, support safe maintenance, and maximize turbine uptime.
We benefitted with an immediate improvement out in the field from our technicians. Displaying clear learnings from the training course and assisted in fault finding to resolve a hydraulic turbine issue.
We would highly recommend the DWPA training course to any new technicians to the industry, with guaranteed immediate positive results for any employer within the industry.

Advanced Component Theory content
The program will introduce wind turbine specific examples and will encompass all relevant Mechanical, Electrical, Hydraulic, and Electronic systems and components (including Wind Turbine Controllers, Converters, and communication equipment)
It is delivered over 5 days with both individual and group interactive exercises with a formal assessment at the end of the class.
The scheduling of our courses takes into consideration the majority of the registered participants.
Why should you attend an Advanced Component Theory class?
Upon successful completion of this program, participants will be able to:
- Identify system components and understand their functionality
- Understand how each component affects the turbine systems/sub systems
- Be able to interpret and navigate system diagrams/schematics (and understand the importance of this competence)
- Be able to check and measure the operating status of electrical components
We have developed the competencies of more than 8.000 people in the wind industry.
If you don’t know how the components are supposed to work in the first place, how can you determine when they misfunction?
