The idea of establishing “Enercon Training Academy” (ETA) germinated from the exponential growth of our company, which underlined the necessity of having committed teams of highly trained engineers and technicians in adequate numbers, who would be capable of ensuring that all machines operate at top performance levels round the clock to produce electrical energy.
As a rapidly expanding organisation, the need to scale up in terms of skilled manpower of appropriate capability. This necessitated us not only to recruit the best available talent but also to provide exhaustive training to them in the specifics and technicalities of our business so that they can function efficiently. In order to ensure that we retain the core values of our company at the highest traditional levels, an all round development and grooming of the trainees at ETA in these aspects is ensured.
ETA provides the required comprehensive technical training, which comprises of both, the theoretical inputs and practical exposure. While the former is to enhance analytical skills the latter enables them to think laterally and creatively in quickly diagnosing and rectifying any in-consistencies, which may crop up in normal functioning of the machines. The training ensures extensive coverage on the basics of wind energy, followed by a thorough coverage of the technology of Enercon (India) Limited machines encompassing all applicable & diverse fields of engineering. Thereafter, a thorough coverage of ERP & SCADA systems as related to our functions, documentation, ISO awareness and material management ensures the functioning of our organization as a well oiled machine with clock-work precision. For hands on training on wind energy converters and a better practical overview, the training includes shop-floor orientation programmes and visits to various service and projects sites.
At a regular frequency of approximately once a month, the ETA turns out a batch of highly motivated, physically fit, agile and technically sound service teams in the form of “Enercon (India) Limited Commandos”, who embrace their work creatively, passionately and independently.
Established on a sprawling campus of 29540 square meters, the EnerconTraining Academy is the first in the world in wind energy sector to have attained an ISO 9001:2008 Certification, from Germanischer Lloyd, Germany, in Sept 2005.
The spectrum of training encompasses all levels, right from the basic courses for ITI & Diploma level fresh entrants, to technical graduates, Managerial level and refresher courses. In order to bridge the gap between trained manpower churned out of ETA and those who had joined the company before ETA was established, Bridge Courses are conducted for these experienced stalwarts.
In addition to the above, specific courses for specialized requirements of departments like, blade manufacturing, mechanical assembly, electrical assembly, generator assembly, wind resource, SCADA, project comprising installation and commissioning are also conducted.
ETA has the capability to design and conduct specific “Tailor Made” capsule courses for all departments of Enercon (India) Limited at short notice. Customer Training Capsules for the technical representatives of our customers are also conducted on as required basis.
Presently, ETA is in the process of massive expansion, to effectively undertake larger training volumes. In the near future, the ETA may be transformed into an autonomous Institute for Wind Energy.
