Whether you’re completely new to forklift operation or looking to renew your certification, we have programs designed to meet your needs.
What We Provide
We deliver comprehensive services spanning classroom training, practical application, evaluation, and ongoing compliance. Here’s how we help:
- Operator Training & Certification
Certified courses across a broad range of equipment including:
• Counterbalance forklifts
• Narrow aisle / reach lift trucks
• Order pickers
• Scissor lifts / aerial platforms
• Walkie & pallet trucks
Each course combines theoretical instruction, equipment-specific safety practices, hands-on practice, and formal assessments to ensure competency.
- Train-the-Trainer Programs
For companies looking to build internal training capacity, we offer programs to certify your staff as instructors. You’ll receive guides, evaluation tools, and resources so your team can deliver safe, compliant training in-house. - Refresher & Renewal Training
Regular recertification is required for many types of equipment. We provide refresher courses to renew skills, update operators on legislative or standard changes, and reinforce best practices.
On-Site Training
We come to you. Our team can deliver training at your facility, using your equipment and simulating your work environment. This helps operators train in real-life settings, reducing the learning curve and increasing relevance.Safety Audits & Workplace Assessment
Beyond operator training, we can evaluate your workspace for hazards, workflow issues, equipment locations, and traffic patterns. This helps you identify risk points and implement preventive controls to avoid accidents.Customized Training Solutions
If you have special equipment, unusual constraints (like tight aisles, mixed fuel types, high reach), or industry-specific hazards, we’ll tailor the training to match your unique needs—ensuring relevance, safety, and effectiveness.Compliance Documentation & Record Keeping
We assist in maintaining accurate training records, certificates, and documentation required under Ontario OHSA and CSA standards. We also help ensure your certifications remain valid and up-to-date.
