Two days, solid foundation

Day one focuses on theory and a first hands-on introduction to the machine. Day two is all about driving skills, working with loads, and the final assessment.

You will learn to drive, manoeuvre, safely pick up and put down loads, work with racking systems, and recognise and prevent hazardous situations.

What will you learn?

  • Safe driving, manoeuvring and working with loads
  • Vehicle inspection and equipment checks
  • Recognising and preventing hazards
  • Safety rules and procedures on the work floor
  • Collaboration in a logistics environment

What does the training day look like?

The training consists of a theory section, practical training, and concludes with a theory exam and a practical assessment. Self-study is required to pass the theory exam. Each participant receives a textbook in advance to prepare.
