TMH Open Enrollment Forklift Operator Training & Certification

Open enrollment Forklift Operator Training classes are designed for companies with less than five operators and / or single individuals that need training & certification. Beginners and experienced operators benefit from this class.

TMH Open Enrollment Forklift Operator Training Courses are performed at a TMH facility, using our forklifts. The course content is similar to our on–site Forklift Operator Training course, but covers sit–down counterbalanced forklifts (electric and gas/lp) only. Additional training by the employer will be necessary for the specific type of work environment encountered and equipment used. Our Open Enrollment Forklift Operator Training course includes classroom lecture and video training with a written test, as well as a “hands–on” driving evaluation. Certificates and wallet cards will be issued for those attendees who successfully complete both the written test and hands on driving evaluation for safe forklift operations on the day of the training.
