OSHA Forklift Certification Process:
OSHA requires that all operators of industrial lift trucks be trained and certified in the use of their equipment before being allowed to operate it as part of their job. The certification process has three main categories.

Safety on the Move can be delivered in-person through traditional classroom training provided by our Certified Operator Trainers.
- E-Learning can be completed online in a comprehensive, yet modular program to meet the learning needs of both new and seasoned forklift operator.
Practical Demonstration
- Practical exercises are completed as the operator is on the forklift while the trainer provides hands-on instruction.
- Hands-on training can be conducted by our Certified Operator Trainers.
- Virtual Reality Simulator can be used to create an engaging learning environment with real-world challenges and real-time feedback by putting operators on an actual forklift in the most realistic virtual warehouses available.
Operator Evaluation
- Trainer will assess how well the forklift operator performs in a variety of applications and situations related to his or her workplace.
