The forklift training usually lasts 1 day (from 8:00 a.m. to around 16:30 p.m.). Depending on the previous knowledge of the operator, a 2nd day of training may be required. The training is divided into theoretical and practical instruction. The practical part takes place with a classic counterbalanced truck (front forklift) instead. Successful course participants receive a certificate of competency for the operation of counterbalanced forklifts (frontloaders). We are also happy to arrange appointments at short notice according to your wishes. At least 6 participants per training day are required. During a training course in our house, the participants are fully catered for.

Training language:
The course is conducted in German as standard, so good knowledge of spoken and written German is essential. With a group size of 8 participants, we also offer the training in Polish. Alternatively, with this group size, you can hire an interpreter who will simultaneously translate the course into your desired language. It is important here that the interpreter is familiar with the translation of specialist and technical terms used in the forklift truck industry. The interpreter cannot be a participant in the course at the same time.
