***Important information about operator training to consider before applying***

In the UK, forklift training is unlike obtaining a driving licence for a car or other motor vehicle. While a driving licence is a general license that allows individuals to drive any type of car, forklift training is specific to the type of forklift being used. There are several different types of forklifts, each with unique features and operating requirements. As such, individuals must receive specific training and certification for each type of forklift they are operating (counterbalance, reach truck, VNA turret truck or ride on pallet truck, for example). Forklift training also includes instruction on how to operate the machinery safely and efficiently, as well as how to perform inspections. Therefore, while obtaining a driving licence may allow individuals to operate any car or vehicle, forklift training is tailored to the specific type of machinery being used, and is necessary for ensuring safe and effective operation.

You must know which truck type you wish to train for before we can provide you with a quote for certification. This certification does not fulfil the role of a so-called 'licence to operate material handling equipment’ but instead provides evidence that you have undertaken training on a specific form of equipment.
