Forklift Training
Our forklift training is a great way to learn a new, marketable skill. Throughout the two day session participants will learn about the different types of forklifts, safety standards, driving rules, ways to prevent accidents and proper maintenance of the machine. These training sessions are held on-site at Goodwill Industries on War Memorial Drive. The training encompasses both classroom instruction and hands-on driving. After proper instruction, students will take both a written and driving test. Upon successful completion of the course, participants will receive a Certificate of Completion to add to his or her portfolio to take to a job interview. Participants will also receive a pocket sized certificate as proof of completion of the training.
