Training Courses Available MVA, in conjunction with TAFE Queensland (TQ Mining Services, a division of the Queensland Government Department of Employment and Training) offers a full range of mine ventilation training courses, all available in nationally accredited, fully portable versions. These courses are suitable for Australian and international participants, irrespective of residency. Courses can also be run in other locations or at other times by prior arrangement. Contact MVA for further details. MVA courses are designed for senior ventilation engineers, ventilation engineers/officers, mine planning engineers and Mines inspectors [coal or metal mines]. The courses provide all participants with the "state of the art" in mine ventilation training and competency in Australia. MVA course materials including course notes are updated at least annually to ensure they are up-to-date with industry developments and trends. All MVA courses include comprehensive software analysis programs, comprehensive course notes and a comprehensive resource CD. The principal course for metalliferous ventilation officers and engineers is MNMMSM631A. Refer to Table 1 below. The principal course for coal mine ventilation officers and engineers is MNCU1109A (which automatically includes MNCU1102A, MNCU1106A, MNCU1111A, MNCU1121A). Refer to Table 1 and Table 2 below. In addition, any ventilation engineer or officer that needs to use Ventsim software should enrol in either the Ventsim Classic (original) or Ventsim Visual Standard 2-day course. Ventsim Visual software is sold in two forms: Standard and Advanced. If you plan to be using the Advanced version of Ventsim Visual (which includes the heat load and temperature modelling and DPM modelling) you need to enrol in the additional third day module. See the explanatory brochure on how the three Ventsim courses are linked. Download it from here. If participants are likely to be using Ventsim Visual for modelling heat loads, temperatures or looking into cooling issues, then it is strongly recommended that they also complete the AMV100 and AMV102 courses, which cover Psychrometry, Heating and Cooling Processes, Elements of Mine Climate, Heat Loads and Refrigeration Systems Design. The Advanced Diploma in Mine Ventilation covers all metalliferous and coal ventilation competencies. See Table 2 below. Participants are allowed to repeat any MVA workshop FREE OF CHARGE (apart from a fee to cover the cost of a new workbook and meals). This is especially helpful for participants who don't already have an engineering degree as it allows them return to their mine site and practice their skills and review course materials and then return for a much improved understanding on their repeat workshop. Completion of these courses will also meet some of the requirements for the Queensland First Class Mine Manager's Certificates of Competency (Coal or Metalliferous). For full details of these requirements, refer to: http://www.dme.qld.gov.au/mines/board_examiners.cfm Table 1
*All fees are $A. GST is additional. The fees listed above are for the non-accredited versions. Fees may be higher for workshops in some locations. For the cost of the accredited versions, contact TQ directly on 1300 653 050. GST is not payable for Australian participants enrolling through TQ. Fees for accredited versions can be subject to change with changes in TAFE policy.Confirm fees prior to enrolment. # See the explanatory brochure on how the three Ventsim courses are linked. Download it from here. Details subject to change without notice. Check for current details before enrolment. Courses can be cancelled if there are insufficient registrations. These courses are also integrated seamlessly into the higher level AQF qualifications MNC60204 Advanced Diploma of Underground Coal Mining Management and MNM60104 Advanced Diploma of Metalliferous Mining (Underground), which can also be undertaken through TQMS, and into statutory qualifications such as the First Class Mine Manager’s Certificate of Competency and the Coal Ventilation Officer or Metalliferous Ventilation Officer (which vary from State to State). These ventilation courses can also be undertaken along with or in fulfilment of two nationally recognised qualifications within the AQF with a reduction in cost by payment of an up-front fee. Table 2
