It’s a no brainer that training is the way to make sure you and your workmates or staff go home safe every day. That’s why MinEx regularly publishes the Train Brain – our email newsletter to keep you up informed of all the latest training opportunities around the country.
With the new safety legislation now in place, training has got more demanding. Until recently, renewing your CoC was a once every 5-year cakewalk. Now, new competencies are demanded and you must keep up to date with your continuing professional development.
You can subscribe to the Train Brain, or check out the current courses on offer in the latest issue.
