Introduction

Forklift safety is important because more than 100 people are killed each year around forklfits. And many thousands more are injured.

OSHA requires that anyone that operates a forklift must be forklift certified before using the lift.

Certification is split into 2 parts:

  1. Formal safety training, like this online class.
  2. Operator evaluations at your job with the equipment you will be using.

This class will satisfy the first part and once completed you can print a forklift license at the end of the test. You can upgrade that license on our web site to a hard plastic license that is professional and helps prove to your employer, staffing agency or union that you have taken an established forklift training class. The link is on our web site and takes 3-5 business days to be sent to you.

Each section of this class is designed to be taken in order, it should take you about 60 to 90 minutes to complete. You can take the test as many as 3 times, and the class will

ONLY BE AVAILABLE  FOR 60 DAYS,

Please continue to your class.
