Our hands-on qualifications in resources and mining will ensure you graduate skilled and job-ready, prepared to join the resources industry. Employers are seeking qualified workers with the technical skills to operate CSG, LNG and hydrocarbons plants and equipment, and to work in the gas supply industry on a wide variety of interesting projects.
Despite moving past the height of the resources boom, job opportunities in the industry are stronger than ever. There has been a 72 per cent rise in job advertisements in the mining, resources and energy sector in August 2017 compared to August 2016. The launch of a number of new mining projects, rising commodity prices, and re-hiring of staff after previous cutbacks are driving demand for qualified candidates.
Develop practical skills in key gas industry operations including installation, maintenance, fault finding and repair, or learn how to use and operate production equipment to develop and produce products and materials. Our range of resources and mining courses will open up career possibilities in chemical, emergency support, CSG plants, hydrocarbons extraction, hydrocarbons transmission, LNG plant, and gas supply.
