Abstract
Science and technology are growing very fast, and industry leaders must make comprehensive plans to transfer new knowledge and updated technology into their companies. This approach not only can help the industry to increase the efficiency in different areas but also potentially help societies have a sustainable environment. The application of advanced analytics and using innovative methods such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and deep learning algorithms are pioneer technologies to the current industrial revolution. If we are interested in having a successful digital transformation plan in different industries, it is essential to make sure we not only can update the employees but also have an acceptable training system to prepare the new workers, managers, and decision-makers for future. This dream will be made true when there is a functional relationship between universities and companies. The mining industry, as a key industry, plays a critical role in training the new miners for future mining projects globally. The chapter presents some new requirements, skills, and related training programs in the mining industry.
