The Saudi Mining Polytechnic (SMP) was established in 2012 as a strategic partnership between the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation (TVTC) and Saudi Arabian Mining Company (Ma\u2019aden) in order to develop cadres of Saudi youth to take over tasks and roles in the mining industry. Initially, a contract was signed with the Missouri University of Science and Technology to operate the institute. The technical and mining programs were designed and developed by the aforementioned university. In its relentless pursuit of achieving the required quality, SMP has seven state-of-the-art simulators, a mini mineral processing plant, a. safety exhibition, a fabrication lab, a geology exhibition and virtual reality lab.

The institute also offers a distinguished English language program that enables graduates to obtain a minimum proficiency level of B1+ in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) standard.
