What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Associate's Degree)

  • Variable pitch and variable speed control systems — troubleshoot common faults using diagnostic checklists and industrial control software with reduced oversight at a wind farm.
  • Electrical test equipment including oscilloscopes and infrared testers — apply independently to diagnose wiring and component faults in converter systems during scheduled maintenance cycles.
  • Routine preventive maintenance tasks — perform oil changes, filter replacements, and bolt torque checks on wind turbine drivetrains according to manufacturer intervals at assigned sites.
  • Underground transmission system components — inspect, test, and document condition findings using facilities management software during periodic field maintenance rounds.
  • Wind turbine generator control systems — diagnose recurring operational faults and apply corrective actions using site-specific service bulletins with minimal supervisor involvement.
  • Tower climb inspections — conduct solo ascents to visually assess blade, hub, and nacelle conditions and log findings in a database interface at an operational wind facility.
  • Hydraulic system malfunctions — identify root causes and execute standard repair procedures on pitch actuators and braking systems during scheduled downtime at a utility wind site.
  • Fiber optic sensing and control systems — perform routine functional tests and connection checks using specialized fiber optic equipment during substations maintenance visits.
  • Spare parts inventory accuracy — maintain real-time stock levels in ERP software and generate replenishment requests to sustain uninterrupted repair readiness at a multi-turbine site.
  • Safety and quality control checks — apply post-maintenance verification steps to confirm system integrity before turbine restart in accordance with site test plans.
