Generic Induction

This Generic Induction course gives you Australia-wide certification in core mine safety skills and is a necessary part of stepping onto a mine site. It is also an aid to achieving an interview when added to your resume.

Safety is probably the biggest issue in mining, and as a first step to gaining employment with a mine or mining contractor, these core skills are invaluable, even though you may still be asked to undertake a mine-specific induction on arriving at your first job-site.

Your training experience will be enhanced by our professional, highly experienced presenters. We have received feedback from former students that attests to this.

The course will be held over 3 days in Townsville City and  full location and course requirement details will be sent to you on registration.

All our students also receive a FREE “Mine Ready Kit” and will be included in the Post-Training Job Support program.
