5 Star Reviews
Great facilities and awesome staff of instructors! Convenient and easy-to-find location for high-quality wind industry safety training. These folks make it fun and engaging.
Learned a lot here! Polite and helpful staff. Such a comfortable environment to learn! They have a variety of up to date equipment and all instructors are very knowledgeable in their respective trades. If you need GWO (BST, ART, or BTT), this is the place to go!
I attended here last week for BST and I will return next week and the week after and very pleased to do so. Marshall was the teacher for my Basic Saftey Training class and I loved it.
I’ve been in the wind industry for about 7+ years now, and I’ve been through safety training here and there of all kinds. This has been by far the best safety training I’ve ever received. Coming back for the refresher was just as fun, hands on, and informative as it was 2 years ago when first taking GWO
Hands down, the best training i had in 6 years. Cody Ramos and Jerry Rodriguez were very knowledgeable in their topics.
We were unable to get Advanced Rescue booked through our company training center. STL USA was recommended to us, and things couldn't have worked out better.
I absolutely enjoyed the way Mr. Jerry Rodriguez conducted his class with absolute respect towards everyone in the class. He is very knowledgeable in this field. I would absolutely recommend his class to others.
Awesome training experience! Knowledgeable staff, nice facility, and just about any fall arrest system you will experience in the wind industry at your fingertips. I was given the opportunity to ask questions, request further explanation, and was even given real world real life experience.
