Forklift Training

Getting an industry certified forklift license allows an individual to drive industrial equipment designed to lift and transport material such as pallets or small/large products. Our well structured forklift course is designed to prepare drivers on how to operate equipment with a complete understanding of physics, operating practices, safety procedures and rules.

If your planning to become employed as a forklift operator you must have a proper forklift licence issued to you. As per Ontario law you are required to prove that you are trained in the handing of mobile equipment such as a forklift before beginning employment as a forklift driver.
