SRK's Consulting's Chairman and Corporate Consultant, Mark Noppe will act as the main facilitator for a comprehensive six-module online course in JORC Code Reporting developed by the AusIMM.

AusIMM has collaborated with a team of leading experts in the mining industry to develop the course, specifically designed for resources professionals to understand how to report effectively and in accordance with the JORC Code. The interactive, online format of the course will provide participants with an opportunity to learn in a community-based environment from wherever they are situated – in the office, on a mine site, at home or at the airport.

"With the content being delivered over eight weeks in an interactive online environment, this course offers a great opportunity to develop your knowledge and understanding without leaving your workplace," said Mark Noppe.

Key learning outcomes of the eight-week course include:

  • Recognising the obligations and liabilities of the Competent Person under the JORC Code
  • Develop a holistic view of the JORC Code and the role it plays in the minerals industry
  • Appreciate the role of the JORC Code within the context of your working environment
  • Appropriately apply the JORC Code in the reporting environment
  • Dispel misconceptions about the JORC Code
  • Identify good and poor technical reporting, and the lessons learned from case study examples
  • Demonstrate the correct application of the JORC Code through interactive learning activities, facilitated by industry experts
