Our in house forklift counterbalance training courses can be located at our site in Purfleet & Kent Accredited Training Centres but are best at your site for the most accurate training on what they will be using day-to-day. In-house courses are designed to have the candidates only certificated on your site meaning they are trained on what they will be using and cannot use this license at any other site.
Our national courses can be held at any site as this course is designed to have the candidate specially trained in all scenarios while using a forklift so that they are available to go to any site and use a forklift. This course is ideal for workers who may have to use a truck at several different sites.
Refresher courses are primarily for candidates who already have a certificate to prove they have done their novice course. These courses are designed to be done after 3 years in order to recap anything the candidates may have forgot and to remove any bad habits they may have picked up which may be likely to cause an accident.
Our conversion courses can be located in our Purfleet & Kent Accredited Training Centres but are best at your site for the most accurate training on what they will be using day-to-day. In house courses are designed to have the candidates only certificated on your site meaning they are trained on what they will be using and cannot use this license at any other site.
