The training offered by OMTI meets the requirements of Mine Safety and Health Administration to keep mining operations in compliance with MSHA regulations. Because of a production fee paid by State permitted mine operators, no tuition is required.
OMTI will continue to help any newly permitted mining operation to get in compliance with any state or federal training regulations. If you would like to attend or send an employee, please call at the number noted above. Our training schedule is posted on the Oklahoma Dept. of Mines website: www.mines.state.ok.us

TRAINING OFFERED IN OKC and TISHOMINGO!!!
In an attempt to be even more responsive to the mining industry, we are offering training classes in Oklahoma City and in Tishomingo. The classes in OKC will be conducted at the Francis Tuttle Technology Center, either at the Reno or Rockwell campus as indicated above in the class dates and the classes in Tishomingo will be held at Murray State College – One Murray Drive in Building 14. By offering these multiple locations, we feel that mining companies in all parts of the state can more easily attend the required training. The Annual Refresher Class that we teach fulfills the requirements for MSHA, as well as the Oklahoma State Supervisor Refresher. If you are interested in attending or sending your employees, please register by calling OMTI at 918/465-1872 or 918/465-1799.
