Why is it necessary to take Counterbalance forklift training course?

All of the counterbalance forklift training courses include both classroom theory and hands-on experience with the counterbalance truck. These courses adhere to the Approved Code of Practice and guidelines provided by the Health and Safety Commission. This means that you, as an employer, are fulfilling your legal duties to ensure that all forklift drivers get appropriate training.

Forklift Training recognizes that everyone has a distinct learning style. As a result, our courses employ a range of approaches to accommodate all learners. To keep everyone engaged, we utilize forklift models, movies, PowerPoint presentations, workbooks, and hand-outs.

 

Each session is then concluded with a series of questions to check that all knowledge has been grasped. The theory work progresses gradually, providing time for the material to sink in before going on to the next step. After demonstrating practical courses, learners are given ample time to practice under close observation.

 

Each course concludes with three levels of testing:

 

  • A theoretical test comprised of 25 questions

  • Inspection before usage
