We offer ITSSAR (Independent Training Standards Scheme & Register) accredited forklift training courses for both companies and private individuals.

Our trainers can deliver accredited forklift truck driver training courses on all forklift types on site at company premises anywhere in the UK at very competitive prices.  We can train for companies at weekends, 24 hours a day to help fit in with shift patterns at no extra cost.

Forklift truck driver training on site has the benefit of staff being trained on the actual equipment they use in their own working environment.  Employees who are competently trained will save money with improved efficiency and less accidental damage.

We can also offer accredited forklift truck driver training courses for individuals and companies at fully equipped training centres in Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk for counter balance and reach trucks.
