As a member of the WA Mining Club committee, Pedley understands the critical role that education plays in the growth and development of the mining industry.

The mining industry is one of the most vital sectors of the global economy, providing essential raw materials for a wide range of industries, including construction, manufacturing, and technology. The industry is constantly evolving, with new technologies and processes driving efficiency and sustainability. However, to continue to thrive, the mining industry needs a skilled workforce that is equipped to meet the challenges of the future.

Investing in STEM education is essential for developing the next generation of mining professionals. STEM education provides students with the skills and knowledge needed to understand and apply scientific and mathematical principles to real-world problems. This education is critical for developing the innovative technologies and processes that will drive the mining industry forward.

The WA Mining Clubs Scholarship Awards Dinner is an excellent opportunity to recognize the achievements of the next generation of mining professionals and encourage them to pursue careers in the industry. The awards dinner provides financial support for students pursuing STEM degrees, helping to reduce the barriers to entry for those who are passionate about the mining industry.

Internships and apprenticeships are essential for providing students with practical experience and exposure to the latest technologies and processes. Companies like MAX Plant can play a vital role in providing these opportunities and helping to bridge the gap between education and the workforce.
