What is Counterbalance / Reach Forklift Training?

​

The training duration will depend on the number of delegates attending and their experience. Training is delivered to a max ratio of 3:1 and that is usually how most of our courses are run. Based on 3:1, a novice course is 4 days, an existing course is 3 days and a refresher or conversion is 1 day. There are exceptions to this.

On completion of the training and assessments, if successful we will issue certificates and optional RTITB electronic ID cards.

​

What you will achieve 

​

If you successfully complete the theory and practical elements you will have proven that your skills and knowledge is at a good standard, ensuring you will keep you and your workspace safer. Training will be accredited to RTITB, the gold standard for Forklift training. You can request in-house certification instead of the nationally recognised RTITB accreditation if you are training your own team.

  • Novice, someone with no experience is usually 4 days
