Carlton Trail College and the global resources company BHP have launched the BHP Potash Academy. This eight-month paid traineeship combines in-class learning with hands-on experience. Graduates of the program will earn a Certificate in Mining Essentials and an Applied Certificate in Industrial Mechanics and will be offered full-time employment at BHP’s Jansen Mine site in Leroy, Saskatchewan. “With the launch of this new partnership between our College and BHP, we are bridging the gap between workforce need, classroom learning and the real-world application of skills,” said Carlton Trail President Amy Yeager. The first cohort of trainees will begin their studies this month.
