Mining Potential

Mining Potential:

Engaging women, youth, and newcomers in mining through an industry validated essential and work readiness skills training program. Mining Potential provides industry-validated training delivered in partnership with employers and educators to create employment opportunities.


Trained, qualified and dedicated!

Each delivery of Mining Potential requires two trainers. At least one trainer must have industry experience, preferably as a trainer or supervisor, and the other must have a background in adult education/life skills training. An ideal training team includes one male and one female trainer, both with positive attitudes, ability to flex the lessons to meet the diverse needs of the classroom and dedication to the success of each and every learner.

Mining Potential trainers can be recruited directly by a Training Site for MiHR's approval or they can apply independently, becoming associated with an approved site at a later date. To apply independently, please contact the Registrar. Once approved, all trainers must attend the Program's Train the Trainer Workshop. Trainers are NOT permitted to deliver Mining Potential without being associated with an approved Training Site.
