About Social Performance in the Resources Sector

Developed in response to demand for more modular, intensive workshops and flexible study options, our social performance masterclasses and courses offer those working in the mining and social performance field the opportunity to learn alongside peers in the sector and to hear from experts in the field.

The Masterclass Series are led by highly qualified and skilled practitioners working around the globe. These courses focus on specialised topics and offer participants the opportunity to develop new skills, gain exposure to latest practice and make key contacts in the field.

CSRM also delivers Customised Workshops, enabling teams to develop new knowledge, explore innovative concepts and practices, and to unpack complex sustainability scenarios. Workshop objectives can be tailored to the needs of individual organisations and can be facilitated at The University of Queensland, your corporate office, or on-site with social performance teams.

The Fundamentals of Social Performance Series consists of three core modules comprising the Foundations of Social Performance, Working with Communities, and Understanding Social Impact, each delivered over a four day period.
