• Learning opportunities identified and taken directly from the learner’s workplace situation.
• Individual reflection on learning.
• Technology enhanced learning using an online learning platform.
• Additional learning material provided via a copy of the Institute of Quarrying’s Explosives in Quarrying textbook for each learner.
