Course Title Fundamentals of Mining

Objectives and Employable skills and hands on practice for Mining Field
Expectations This course offers a broad, cross-disciplinary learning experience for students looking to pursue
careers in Mining field. The main objective of the course is to acquaint student with the span of a
wide range of Mining techniques and build skills in them handle/supervise to the Mining
operation.
In this course students are introduced to key aspects of the Mine planning, nature of rock, health
and safety aspects, mining tools/equipment introduction and handling procedure. so that they
can enter the market as strong candidates for beginner to mining related jobs.
Main Expectations:
In short, the course under reference should be delivered by professional instructors in such
robust hands- on manner that the trainees are comfortably able to employ their skills for earning
money (through wage/employment) at its conclusion.
This course thus clearly goes beyond the domain of the traditional training practices in vogue and
underscores an expectation that a market centric approach will be adopted as the main driving
force while delivering it. The instructors should therefore be experienced enough to be able to
identify the training needs for the possible market roles available out there. Moreover, they
should also know the strengths and weaknesses of each individual trainee to prepare them for
such market roles during/after the training.
i- Specially designed practical tasks to be performed by the trainees have been
included in the Annexure-I to this document. The record of all tasks performed
individually or in groups must be preserved by the management of the training
Institute clearly labeling name, trade, session etc so that these are ready to be
physically inspected/verified through monitoring visits from time to time. The weekly
distribution of tasks has also been indicated in the weekly lesson plan given in this
document.
ii- To materialize the main expectations, a special module on Job Search &
Entrepreneurial Skills has been included in the later part of this course (5th & 6th
month) through which, the trainees will be made aware of the Job search techniques
in the local as well as international job markets. Awareness around the visa process
and immigration laws of the most favored labor destination countries also forms a
part of this module. Moreover, the trainees would also be encouraged to venture
into employment and exposed to the main requirements in this regard. It is also
expected that a sense of civic duties/roles and responsibilities will also be inculcated
in the trainees to make them responsible citizens of the country.
iii- A module on workplace Ethics has also been included to highlight the importance of
good and positive behavior at workplace in the line with the best practices elsewhere
in the world. An outline of such qualities has been given in the Appendix to this
document. Its importance should be conveyed in a format that is attractive and
interesting for the trainees such as through PPT slides +short video documentaries.
That if the training provider puts his heart and soul into these otherwise non-
technical components, the image of Pakistani workforce would undergo a positive
transformation in the local as well as international job markets.
To maintain interest and motivation of the trainees throughout the course, modern
techniques such as:
• Motivational Lectures
• Success Stories
• Case Studies
These techniques would be employed as an additional training tool wherever possible (these
are explained in the subsequent section on Training Methodology).

2|
 Lastly, evaluation of the competencies acquired by the trainees will be done objectively at
various stages of the training and proper record of the same will be maintained. Suffice to say
that for such evaluations, practical tasks would be designed by the training providers to gauge
the problem-solving abilities of the trainees.
(i) Motivational Lectures
The proposed methodology for the training under reference employs motivation as a tool.
Hence besides the purely technical content, a trainer is required to include elements of
motivation in his/her lecture. To inspire the trainees to utilize the training opportunity to the
full and strive towards professional excellence. Motivational lectures may also include general
topics such as the importance of moral values and civic role & responsibilities as a Pakistani. A
motivational lecture should be delivered with enough zeal to produce a deep impact on the
trainees. It may comprise of the following:
 Clear Purpose to convey message to trainees effectively.
 Personal Story to quote as an example to follow.
 Trainees fit so that the situation is actionable by trainees and not represent a just
idealism.
 Ending Points to persuade the trainees on changing themselves
A good motivational lecture should help drive creativity, curiosity and spark the desire needed
for trainees to want to learn more. Impact of a successful motivational strategy is amongst
others commonly visible in increased class participation ratios. It increases the trainees’
willingness to be engaged on the practical tasks for longer time without boredom and loss of
interest because they can clearly see in their mind's eye where their hard work would take
them in short (1-3 years); medium (3 -10 years) and long term (more than 10 years).
As this tool is expected that the training providers would make arrangements for regular well
planned motivational lectures as part of a coordinated strategy interspersed throughout the
training period as suggested in the weekly lesson plans in this document.
Course related motivational lecture online link is available in annexure II
(ii) Success Stories
Another effective way of motivating the trainees is by means of Success Stories. Its inclusion in
the weekly lesson plan at regular intervals has been recommended till the end of the training.
A success story may be disseminated orally, through a presentation or by means of a
video/documentary of someone that has risen to fortune, acclaim, or brilliant achievement. A
success story shows how a person achieved his goal through hard work, dedication and
devotion. An inspiring success story contains compelling and significant facts articulated clearly
and easily comprehendible words. Moreover, it is helpful if it is assumed that the
reader/listener knows nothing of what is being revealed. Optimum impact is created when the
story is revealed in the form of:
 Directly in person (At least 2-3 cases must be arranged by the training institute)
 Through an audio/ videotaped message (2-3 high quality videos must be
arranged by the training institute)
It is expected that the training provider would collect relevant high quality success stories for
inclusion in the training as suggested in the weekly lesson plan given in this document.
Suggestive structure and sequence of a sample success story and its various shapes
can be seen at annexure III.
(iii) Case Studies
Where a situation allows, case studies can also be presented to the trainees to widen their
understanding of the real-life specific problem/situation and to explore the solutions.
In simple terms, the case study method of teaching uses a real-life case example/a typical case
to demonstrate a phenomenon in action and explain theoretical as well as practical aspects of
the knowledge related to the same. It is an effective way to help the trainees comprehend in
depth both the theoretical and practical aspects of the complex phenomenon in depth with
ease. Case teaching can also stimulate the trainees to participate in discussions and thereby
boost their confidence. It also makes classroom atmosphere interesting thus maintaining the
trainee interest in training till the end of the course.
Depending on suitability to the trade, the weekly lesson plan in this document may suggest
case studies to be presented to the trainees. The trainer may adopt a power point presentation

3|
 or video format for such case studies whichever is deemed suitable but it’s important that only
those cases are selected that are relevant and of a learning value.
The Trainees should be required and supervised to carefully analyze the cases.
For the purpose they must be encouraged to inquire and collect specific information / data,
actively participate in the discussions and intended solutions of the problem / situation.
Case studies can be implemented in the following ways:
i. A good quality trade specific documentary (At least 2-3 documentaries must be
arranged by the training institute)
ii. Health &Safety case studies (2 cases regarding safety and industrial accidents must
be arranged by the training institute)
iii. Field visits (At least one visit to a trade specific major industry/ site must be
arranged by the training institute)

Schedule Mentor Should do

Welcome: Short welcome and ask the Mentor to introduce him/herself.
5 min Provide a brief welcome to the qualification for the class.
Note for Instructor: Throughout this session, please monitor
the session to ensure nothing inappropriate is being
happened.
Icebreaker: Start your session by delivering an icebreaker, this will
10 min enable you and your team to start to build rapport and
create a team presentation for the tasks ahead.
The icebreaker below should work well at introductions and
encouraging communication, but feel free to use others if
you think they are more appropriate. It is important to
encourage young people to get to know each other and build
strong team links during the first hour; this will help to
increase their motivation and communication throughout
the sessions.
Introduction & Onboarding: Provide a brief introduction of the qualification to the class
20mins and play the “Onboarding Video or Presentation”. In your
introduction cover the following:
1. Explanation of the program and structure. (Kamyab jawan
Program)
2. How you will use your communication skills in your
professional life.
3. Key contacts and key information – e.g. role of teacher,
mentor, and SEED. Policies and procedures (user agreements
and “contact us” section). Everyone to go to the Group Rules
tab at the top of their screen, read out the rules, and ask
everyone to verbally agree. Ensure that the consequences
are clear for using the platform outside of hours. (9am-8pm)
4. What is up next for the next 2 weeks ahead so young
people know what to expect (see pages 5-7 for an overview
of the challenge). Allow young people to ask any questions
about the session topic.
15 |
Team Activity Planning: MENTOR: Explain to the whole team that you will now be
30 minutes planning how to collaborate for the first and second
collaborative Team Activities that will take place outside of
the session. There will not be another session until the next
session so this step is required because communicating and
making decisions outside of a session requires a different
strategy that must be agreed upon so that everyone knows
what they are doing for this activity and how.
 “IDENTIFY ENTREPRENEURS” TEAM ACTIVITY
 “BRAINSTORMING SOCIAL PROBLEMS” TEAM
ACTIVITY”
As a team, collaborate on a creative brainstorm on social
problems in your community. Vote on the areas you feel most
passionate about as a team, then write down what change
you would like to see happen.
Make sure the teams have the opportunity to talk about how
they want to work as a team through the activities e.g. when
they want to complete the activities, how to communicate,
the role of the project manager, etc. Make sure you allocate
each young person a specific week that they are the project
manager for the weekly activities and make a note of this.
Type up notes for their strategy if this is helpful - it can be
included underneath the Team Contract.

Session Close: MENTOR: Close the session with the opportunity for anyone
5 minutes to ask any remaining questions.
Instructor:
Facilitate the wrap-up of the session. A quick reminder of
what is coming up next and when the next session will be.
