Training is offered in six modules to allow all users to improve their level of expertise in MineSuite.

Module 1 – Introduction and Data Entry covers fundamental concepts of MineSuite. It also overviews the building blocks of Minesuite, namely Processes, Locations, Events and Delays. (Detailed training on how to set up these building blocks is included in Module 4.)

Module 1 also provides personnel with the basic skills to open shifts and enter assignments, production data and delays against equipment in that shift. It explains the data entry shift screen, and includes troubleshooting.

Module 2 – Tools and Basic Reporting (to be run in conjunction with Module 1) builds on the previous course by introducing personnel to Shift Management. It also introduces data management and planning. Data management involves performing specific functions such as surveyor’s correction and location reconcile. Planning mostly involves setting up budgets and targets (comparing forecasting and re-forecasting figures on production statistics).

Module 2 explains the Time Allocation chart used to set up Events which represent Key Performance Indicators that may be used on site and in reporting. Personnel will also be introduced to MineSuite’s free-format reporting module. Reporting concepts will be explained, leading to the creation and generation of basic queries and page reports.

Module 3 - Advanced Reporting builds on training covered in Module 2, introducing the concept of datasets and the use of these in pages. It also covers page batches, exporting reports and the task scheduler.

Module 4 - System Setup (Administrator’s Course) is an Administrator’s module. The course demonstrates how personnel can setup a calendar, shift, groups and personnel in Minesuite.

It also covers the engineering set up section of the software. At its conclusion, personnel will able to add new equipment, locations and delays into the MineSuite database. Events which can be modelled (KPIs) are also explained in detail.

Module 5 - Hardware Maintenance introduces MineSuite hardware maintenance and basic troubleshooting, enabling users to diagnose and correct system faults. Areas covered include system components and interconnection, program downloads, interpreting and understanding diagnostic screens and fault-finding techniques.

Module 6 - Online Administration builds on modules 1-4, covering diagnostics and maintenance from a software administrator’s perspective. It explores setting up and managing summaries, mapping, alerts, haul cycle, delay editing, diagnostics and online/system maintenance.

At the end of the course, participants will receive a certificate for accreditation.
