摘要: The Western Mining Training and Translation Center - Colorado School of Mines (WMTTCCSM) was created in 2004, when the Colorado School of Mines partnered with the University of Missouri at Rolla, under the directorship of Dr. Larry Grayson. The Denver location of WMTTC-CSM permits it to be responsive to the Western mining industry and allows it to draw upon a large pool of technical expertise, former federal employees associated with both the Bureau of Mines and the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and also mining industry professionals from large international mining and construction companies with headquarters or regional offices in Denver. The professional staff included five administrative faculty members employed as permanent part-time employees who had over 185 years of experience, with 155 years of mining-related experience. Specific professional certifications and licenses held by the technical staff included: Professional Registered Engineer (State of Colorado), (American Board of Industrial Hygiene), and Certified Professional Ergonomist (Board of Certified Professional Ergonomists). Three of the five permanent employees were also Certified Mine Safety Professionals (International Society of Mine Safety Professionals), all were MSHA-Approved Instructors for both surface and underground mining, and four of the five instructors were MSHA-Approved for mine rescue. Other MSHA instructor approvals held by the professional staff included Initial and Annual Electrical Training in Low/Medium/High Voltage and First Aid. Specific technical areas of expertise of these employees were: Electrical Engineering, Mining Engineering, Industrial Hygiene, Ergonomics, First Aid, Civil Engineering, Dam Safety, Ground Control, Explosives, Conveyor Belts, Materials Handling, Noise, Dust, Haulage, Hazard Communication, and Mine Rescue and Incident Command Center. During 2008 and 2009, the staff decreased in size primarily due to retirements. Three new employees have been hired to bring the total number of employees to four and one part-time volunteer, whose technical expertise is in industrial hygiene, was recently added to the staff Because the technical expertise of the current staff is different from the original staff, there have been some changes in the training courses that were offered during the past two years. There was also a drop in the number of training days in 2009 during the transition period when the number of employees dropped to two and the hiring of new employees was delayed as a result of administrative procedures.
