Quarrying is a field we all want to grow and retain staff, by sharing our experience Metso hope to assist in this endeavour,\u201d Metso senior application and project manager for Asia Glenn Oldfield said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSo far, we have had a fantastic take up of this opportunity with Boral, Heidelberg, Holcim, Adbri, and many other industry players.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;In February, a group of industry leaders from Queensland, including 20 personnel from Boral, participated in Metso\u2019s Crushing and Screening Fundamentals Course. The Boral team comprised quarry managers, supervisors, leading hands, and fixed plant operators. The primary goal of the training sessions was to refresh skills and reinforce fundamental knowledge on this crucial topic.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_41777\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.quarrymagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Training-25.02.25_Prize-winner-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41777\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Several Boral employees attended the training.

The course was well-paced, and the content was delivered excellently by a respected industry expert. Glenn\u2019s style of delivery was unbiased, balanced, and well-informed, providing valuable insights on a range of equipment and processes,\u201d Long said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u201cThe objective of the sessions was to refresh the skills of our key personnel, whose roles include management, supervision, operations, asset care, and quality assurance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u201cI highly recommend this program to anyone in our industry who is looking for foundational training and an understanding of the basic theory behind crushing and screening technology.
