Abstract

The Dual Training Program, given its methodology and comprehensiveness, addresses more than one need identified in the area of direct social influence of the Cerro Lindo mining unit of Nexa Resources. 

Faced with a shortage of local skilled labor, an alternative is proposed so that young people can access higher education and thus gain knowledge about the Multiple Operator career, which has been designed with an innovative approach that combines theory and practice. 

This is essential for students, as they receive training and gain experience in the mining unit at the same time. This not only ensures a skilled workforce to meet the needs of the operation, but also has an impact on the quality of life of young adults. 

By accumulating work experience, it will be more feasible for them to enter the labor market, a crucial aspect that is currently requested by many companies for safety and efficiency reasons.
