Course Details
The MSHA Part 48 training course is a self-paced online safety program that delivers the classroom knowledge required under 30 CFR Part 48 for miners at underground and surface mining operations. Completed entirely online through our asynchronous LMS, it covers New Miner training for workers entering the industry, Newly Hired Experienced Miner training for qualified miners changing operations, and the Annual Refresher training MSHA requires every 12 months. Lessons build practical skills in hazard recognition, safe work practices, ground and electrical hazards, emergency and evacuation procedures, and the health and safety standards MSHA enforces. The program also explains miner rights and responsibilities under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act, along with accident-prevention and hazard-reporting practices. MSHA requires at least 8 hours of annual refresher instruction, and this course runs a matching 8 contact hours so your training stays complete and consistent. When you finish, you earn 0.80 IACET CEU and a certificate of completion documenting the topics you covered.
Because 30 CFR Part 48 requires an MSHA-approved training plan, this online course delivers the classroom and knowledge portions of the curriculum and does not, by itself, satisfy every Part 48 obligation or produce an official MSHA Form 5000-23. Your mine operator remains responsible for site-specific hazard awareness, hands-on task training, and recording each miner instruction record on Form 5000-23, as outlined in 30 CFR 48.23 and 48.28. Used alongside that approved plan, this MSHA Part 48 refresher and new miner training gives you a consistent, audit-ready record of the required safety and health topics. Review the course details below, then enroll to complete your self-paced online MSHA Part 48 training and coordinate site-specific documentation with your operator.
