Course overview
Develop an in-depth understanding of the JORC Code, including recognising obligations and liabilities, demonstrating its correct applications across different industries, and appropriately applying the Code to the reporting environment under the ASX and ASIC.
AusIMM’s Professional Certificate in JORC Code Reporting has been specifically designed for resources professionals responsible for effectively reporting in accordance with the JORC Code (e.g. Competent Persons or aspiring Competent Persons).
Note: This course does not enable a practitioner to qualify as a Competent Person. All the criteria as specified in the JORC Code must still be met.

- Describe a holistic view of the JORC Code and the role it plays in the minerals industry
- Interpret the JORC Code within the context of your working environment
- Apply the JORC Code in the reporting environment
- Recognise and counter common misconceptions about the JORC Code
- Identify good and poor technical reporting
- Apply the lessons learned from case studies
- Demonstrate the correct application of the JORC Code
Who should attend?
- Aspiring Competent Persons: Develop an in-depth understanding of the JORC Code and its application
- Mining industry professionals: Ensure that you are performing at the highest level expected.
- Mining companies listed or looking to list on the Stock Exchange: Establish your team’s knowledge of the JORC Code’s intricacies and its application in the reporting environment.

Frequently asked questions
What are the technical requirements to participate in the course? i.e. do I need a webcam, microphone, etc?
The course will be run entirely online via a cloud-based platform called Cahoot which can be accessed via computer, tablet or phone. Participants will simply need to have a working Internet connection and a computer, tablet or phone with sound to access the course. They will not be required to download any software and will not require any hardware like a webcam or microphone.
How long will the course take?
The entire course will run over eight weeks (six modules over six weeks plus another two weeks to finish the final assignment). It is expected that participants will take about 40 hours to finish the entire course. This includes attendance at live webinars and completion of all learning activities.
Must a participant complete and pass all modules in order to finish the course?
Yes, it is a requirement for participants to complete all modules and pass all learning activities, including the final assessment. A professional certificate will be awarded upon successful completion.
How often will the courses be run?
We aim to run two to three intakes each year.
Can a participant sign up for only one or two modules?
Unfortunately no, the course must be completed in its entirety.
Will the course be delivered in other languages?
No, the course is currently delivered in English only. We are looking at delivering the course in other languages in the near future.
Does someone have to have a prequalification of years’ experience before they can do the course?
No. If someone is on the pathway to becoming a Competent Person, then doing this course early will help them to better understand the JORC Code and its requirements.
Will current Competent Persons and industry practitioners be required to undertake this training before reporting?
It is not currently mandatory but it is highly recommended to raise the knowledge of the overall profession.
