Program Overview
The two-semester Blasting Techniques Ontario College Certificate is the only program of its kind in Canada. This is a highly practical, hands-on program, in a rapidly growing industry.
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Fascinated by the explosives industry? Do you like to work outdoors, and in challenging environments? If so, you may be interested in exploring a career as a blaster. With our well-developed connections with industry and our specialized resources and drilling compound, students get the hands-on training necessary for their career in blasting.
- Blasters fill blast holes with explosives and detonate them to dislodge coal, ore, rock, or aggregate, or to demolish structures.
- Blasters are employed by construction, mining, and drilling and blasting companies, as well as in the special effects industry.
- You will focus on three types of explosive cuts, and incorporate a wide range of skills in science, mathematics, and communications.
- Courses include explosives, blasthole drilling, blasting theory, blast design, geology, safety and accident prevention, and environmental issues.
You will spend much of your time in labs, field classes and field assignments, and refining your skills in our state-of-the-art drilling and blasting training centre.
WHY CHOOSE FLEMING
- Fleming's Blasting Techniques certificate has several advantages upon completion:
- You will have common core training as a Surface Miner as required by the Ministry of Labour to enter most blasting sites.
- Upon graduation, you will have the option of certifying with the International Society of Explosives Engineers (ISEE) in Quarrying, Basic Construction Blasting, and the Fundamentals of Blasting (Level One).
