CMI 2280 — Adv. Mine Rescue Field Training
This course is a cooperative teaching effort between coal companies and Coal Mining Technology. This course is designed to exceed the minimal requirements established in Title 30, CFR, Part 49, for mandatory refresher training in mine rescue team personnel. In addition, this course contains heavy emphasis on mine rescue field training, in both practice and competitive situations. The content of the course will vary from company to company depending on: (1) the type of mine rescue breathing apparatus used; (2) existing training requirements; (3) mine specific needs; and (4) weather conditions, since much of the practice is done outdoors. Since federal regulations mandates that this refresher training be repeated annually, this course is repeatable. One-half to one credit will be awarded each time student successfully completes the course. Total number of credits that may be applied to a degree shall be five credits. Lecture. Variable. Repeatable 3 times.
