Barrick teams with UNR

Barrick Gold Corp. has teamed with the University of Nevada, Reno, to create a leadership development program.

The classes, which began in October and run through March, were developed by the Mackay School of Earth Sciences and Engineering, the College of Business and UNR Extended Studies. Most classes have been in Elko.

The program provided training for 23 mid-level managers and supervisors with Barrick, said Jim McClenahan, director of management and executive programs for the University's Extended Studies.
