Building Skills and Confidence in Mt Thorley

In the Mt Thorley yard, Monadelphous has launched a dedicated training space that’s already reshaping how employees approach safety and skill development. With a focus on nationally accredited training, refresher courses, and verifications of competency (VOCs), the space offers a structured environment for employees to hone their abilities and keep pace with industry advancements and Monadelphous standards.   

At the heart of the training space’s offerings is VOC training, essential for safety in high-risk roles. Soon, we’ll introduce nationally accredited confined space entry and working at heights training, broadening the scope of critical skills available with each training session reinforcing our core Monadelphous value, The Safe Way is The Only Way when performing these tasks.  

Rickie Thompson, New South Wales Training Coordinator, noted that employees appreciate the opportunity not just to refresh their skills but also to engage directly with trainers to ask questions.  

“They see this as a chance to stay current and bring up any queries they may have. It’s not just about meeting standards; it’s about building confidence and clarity,” Rickie shared. 

For new starters, training at Mt Thorley is an introduction to Monadelphous’ commitment to safety and quality. For seasoned employees, it’s a resource for staying sharp and informed. This training space sets a new standard for regional hands-on, accessible, and forward-thinking training.
