If you’ve been tasked with finding a forklift training provider, you’ll likely be looking to find out how much it will cost to get your operators trained up and qualified, with a valid forklift certificate (or licence, as it’s sometimes known – more on this here).
When searching the market, we know that obtaining pricing is a priority but, because every workplace has different equipment types and requirements, the cost of our training courses can vary.
So, in order to give you an accurate quote, we’ll just need a few details first. In most instances, this can be done over the phone with one of our expert advisors in minutes, providing you with training dates and pricing there and then.
Here’s how it works:
How much does forklift training cost?
Several key factors influence course duration and complexity, and therefore pricing, including:
– The type of equipment you need training on
Each course covers safety-critical content tailored to the equipment type, and because some have more complex functionality, course durations and the availability of the instructors qualified to lead the course can vary, this can influence the cost.
– The number of delegates attending
Larger groups require more time from the instructor to ensure each delegate receives sufficient attention, practical training, and assessment. With many providers pricing training by the day, this can affect overall cost.
– The experience level of those delegates
A delegate’s prior experience determines the type of course they need. As you would expect, novices require the most training; experienced, refresher and conversion courses are often shorter and priced accordingly. You can find our guide to forklift training experience levels here.
– Whether the training is completed online or in person
Forklift training courses comprise of theory and practical elements. Theory training may be completed online or delivered in person, as preferred. Online theory can be done independently in advance, meaning an instructor is not required to attend site until the practical element begins, which reduces the cost.
