Online course allows managers flexible access to training
10 April 2020
Mentor FLT Training has developed a new e-learning course, to help those managing forklift operations meet their responsibilities for safety, compliance and productivity.
Providing online access to vital information and guidance, the AITT-accredited Managing Forklift Operations course can be completed whenever and wherever delegates choose, enabling managers and supervisors to fit training around their working patterns.
Stuart Taylor, managing director of Mentor, explains: “We found that many companies needed a flexible alternative to a full day’s classroom training. Our convenient online solution now allows managers to train at a pace, place and time that suits them.”
The online course has five engaging modules that include thought-provoking video content, PDF handouts and regular summaries and quizzes to confirm knowledge. Delegates can complete the course in fewer total hours than the face-to-face format, whilst still meeting all required objectives.
Stuart Taylor adds: “It’s crucial that managers and supervisors receive suitable training — not just for compliance, but because it helps them reduce risk and boost productivity as a result. They must be able to keep operations running safely and smoothly, by monitoring forklift use, recognising and rectifying any bad practice, and ensuring bad habits aren’t allowed to take root.
“The Managing Forklift Operations course provides managers and supervisors with the skills they need to ensure their businesses stay safe and profitable, and the new online option is a flexible, cost-efficient way to complete this essential training.”
