FAQ
Most importantly, this course covers the requirements from CSA Standards and Alberta OH&S for all types of Fork Lift Trucks.
There are 4 major types of Fork Lift Trucks: Counter Balance, Narrow Aisle Reach, Order Picker and the Walkie / Rider Pallet Truck.
This comprehensive course covers both the theoretical principles and a hands-on practical evaluation using a counterbalance forklift. Once certified, your employer is required to provide site specific training & sign off on the type, make & model you will be operating at your workplace.
Once you have completed your Forklift Training program, you will become a Certified Forklift Operator. You will be issued a Photo ID – Licence Size Certificate that you should carry with you while operating the Forklift. People often get confused with the terminology, because it looks like a Drivers Licence you receive to operate a car. However, there is no such thing as a Forklift Licence / License.
No. A cell phone is a distraction. When operating a forklift truck, you need to stay completely focused at the task at hand. Just the same as when you drive your car. You can receive a fine by Ministry Inspectors if you use your cell phone while operating your Fork Lift Truck
No. A driver’s license is not required to get a certification for or to operate a forklift.
Forklift certification/training is applicable to any worker to uses or operates a any sort of lift truck, such as a Counter Balance, Narrow Aisle Reach, Order Picker and the Walkie / Rider Pallet Truck.
Your forklift certification remains valid for three years. While annual renewal is not compulsory, it is advisable.
