Namibian Institute of Mining and Technology

The Namibian Institute of Mining and Technology (NIMT) is a technical vocational training institute in Arandis, Namibia, established in 1991. It offers courses in mining, manufacturing and engineering.[1] In 2007, De Beers donated N$2.1 million to open a second northern campus and in November of that year a campus was opened in Tsumeb. NIMT also operates a campus in Keetmanshoop in southern Namibia.[2][3]

NIMT produces between 300 and 500 graduates a year who go on to be employed by the Mining industry of Namibia.[4]
