The program includes a drilling supervisor training course where supervisors are given essential coaching and tools to help them navigate and succeed in their positions.

The training will be tracked and reportable online through the Boart’s learning management system. The system tracks individual training and competencies and includes more than 20 online training modules on topics such as hazard and risk awareness, field level risk assessment, incident reporting and investigation, and distracted driving.
