Mining industry is run by multi-disciplinary human resource. Executives from HR, Personnel, Welfare, Business Development, Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, etc serve the industry other than the conventional mining engineers. Hence, there was a requirement of training of these non-mining executives regarding mining technology, its environmental aspects along with the applicable legislations.
