AirFinders offers Continuing Education and Industrial Training Ventilation Courses on a regular basis (all courses are offered at the mine site).
We can train your in-house talent to learn the necessary skills on the job, help build in-house expertise and stay current with developments in the industry.
A typical course is conducted at the mine site requiring a day of theory and one or two days of practical hands on work with the instructor.
