  Forklift Training

  Forklifts are the most widely used pieces of equipment for lifting and moving heavy loads. Many industries such as agriculture, warehousing, and construction use one or more types of forklifts for handling heavy materials at the job site. However, operating a forklift requires a lot of skill as it can be dangerous to work with heavy equipment without specialized training, for the operator as well as others around them. For this reason, forklift training is a prerequisite in Canada and the USA in compliance with the guidelines and training standards determined by Canadian Standards Association (CSA) in Canada and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in the USA.

  Aerial Lift (MEWP) Training

  Operator training specializes operators to work safely in all kinds of environments whether it is maneuvering a reach truck in tight warehouse aisles or working on a mobile elevated work platform (MEWP) also known as aerial work platforms. The purpose of training is to give the operators the right information and skills needed to work efficiently on different job sites. The MEWP training course is recommended for teaching operators to work responsibly at heights as these work platforms extend several feet in the air. Training is mandatory for anyone working with elevated work platform equipment such as boom lifts, man lifts, and scissor lifts. We also offer boom lift training and scissor lift training.
