Instructor Training
In order to become an accredited ITSSAR instructor you will need to attend a 10 day intensive training course. Our approved instructor courses offer experienced operators a direct route into delivering quality lift truck training themselves. They provide individuals with the necessary expertise to instruct in line with industry standards.
Once completed the qualification lasts for 5 years then 5 day requalification course is required.
Instructors qualified from other awarding bodies, such as RTITB, can attend a 5 day assimilation course to obtain ITSSAR accreditation.
FLT Associated Training
To ensure the safety of everyone involved in warehouse operations, training should extend to non-operators. Whether these are the managers and supervisors responsible for operators, or the banksmen who assist in the movement of lift trucks, they should be fully equipped to minimise the risk of an accident in the workplace and therefore promote a safe working environment, saving money and claims.
Training in Management and Supervision of Lift Truck Operations is available and accredited by ITSSAR.
