RIIBLA202F Support underground shotfiring operations RTO Training Materials

Built for the Environments Where This Training Happens

The Standards for RTOs require training and assessment to reflect genuine workplace conditions, current industry expectations and the way tasks are performed in practice. For underground shotfiring support, this means preparing learners to work safely around authorised blasting activities, follow site controls and communicate effectively within a controlled underground mining environment.

Our RIIBLA202F Support underground shotfiring operations training materials help trainers connect learning with genuine workplace activities, including reviewing blast plans, preparing work areas, checking equipment and materials, following exclusion and clearance procedures, communicating with the shotfirer and recording relevant workplace information.

Underground Metalliferous Mines

In underground metalliferous mining, support personnel may assist with workplace preparation, access control, equipment checks and post-blast activities under the direction of an authorised shotfirer.

RIIBLA202F RTO training materials help trainers contextualise learning and assessment around headings, stopes, drives, underground travelways, site communication systems and the mine’s own procedures for blast preparation, re-entry and reporting.

Underground Coal Mines

Underground coal mining requires strict coordination around blasting controls, ventilation, gas monitoring, isolation procedures and the movement of people and equipment before and after a shot.

Trainers can use RIIBLA202F training resources to build scenarios around coal mine work areas, statutory requirements, supervisor directions, communication protocols, workplace documentation and responses to changing underground conditions.

Underground Tunnelling and Civil Construction

In tunnelling and other underground civil construction projects, workers may support shotfiring operations while working around changing access arrangements, shift handovers, plant movements and project-specific exclusion zones.

RIIBLA202F learning materials support contextualised activities that reflect tunnel development, coordination with site supervisors and contractors, pre-start checks, blast area controls, incident reporting and the documentation expected on a civil construction project.

Any Delivery Mode

The editable resources support classroom delivery, workplace delivery, blended learning and online delivery. Trainers can contextualise learning activities, examples and assessments for their learner cohort, workplace conditions and the procedures used at the relevant mine or project site.
