Description

Different aspects of mining operations require different management approaches. This course provides applied management theory and practices in each area of project, process, contracts and contractor management. In each case, examples and case studies are linked to mining operations. The course works through a typical mining system to identify the embedded sub-projects and processes which are inherent to the mining system and demonstrates the role and benefits of applying different management techniques. Managing contracts, including on-going contractor management both at the construction and ongoing operational stage of a mine is addressed in the course.
