Abstract

Wind power implementing projects implies a deep analysis of competencies and involves a good partnership among project teams through exchange of information, resources, and allocation of specific roles. It is considered to be important in finding mutually profitable cooperation models that support project staff essential training for research, development, and implementation of wind power project. The methodology is based on knowledge, skills, and attitudes model (KSAs) and it is used to support competency training in achieving a good collaboration between project teams in a wind power project. The KSAs were selected to enable project professionals to identify areas of training needed in order to become proficient in wind power project. Competencies are required to address their areas of responsibilities in implementing a wind power project. The model applied illustrates that project teams need to have the ability to understand the information to perform the right task.
