{Charleston, West Virginia}...Mining managers from Shanxi Province, China's top coal-producing province, will undergo safety training at the Southern West Virginia Community and Technical College in southern West Virginia. The managers toured the college's facilities Thursday and signed an agreement Thursday afternoon at the Governor's Mansion to promote collaboration in safe mining and mine rescue practices. First Lady Joanne Jaeger Tomblin is the technical college's president. The technical college is in the application process to accept international students, so the group of managers will enroll through WVU, which will contract with the technical college to provide the training. The managers plan to return for training next month.
