Operator Training

At 1st Advanced Training, we provide professional operator training for all types of material handling equipment across a wide range of industries. Offering both AITT accredited and in-house certified training programmes, our expert instructors deliver high-quality, practical training tailored to your operational needs.

Our courses are designed to equip your workforce with the skills, knowledge, and confidence required to operate safely and efficiently while ensuring full compliance with UK health and safety requirements and industry best practices.

Forklift Truck Operator Training Courses

We provide a comprehensive range of operator training courses tailored to the specific characteristics of different types of material handling equipment. With courses that support the experience levels of every worker within your business – from new recruits without any experience, to experienced operators, and refresher courses to maintain competence. Each course combines practical hands-on instruction with essential theoretical knowledge to ensure operators are fully compliant.

These are the most popular type of forklifts, often considered the backbone of material handling operations. Our training focuses on load balancing, manoeuvring in tight spaces, and safe operation during loading, unloading, stacking, de-stacking, and moving loads.

These versatile forklifts feature a pivoting chassis, that allow the forks to rotate through more than 180°. Our training focuses on manoeuvring in very narrow aisle warehouses, safe load handling, stability awareness, and advanced operating techniques to maximise efficiency.

Due to their compact design, our training focuses on the stability principles of extendable forks, including load centre awareness, weight distribution, and the effects of lift height on truck balance. Ideal for every high-level stacking operation in narrow aisles warehouses.

Elevate the Legal Compliance of your Business

Our professional operator training courses help employers achieve their legal obligations by ensuring operators possess the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required to work safely, efficiently, and in compliance with legislation.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is the UK’s workplace safety regulator, providing guidance on the safe use of work equipment, requiring employers to ensure forklift operators are adequately trained, competent, and understand the workplace risks.

The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER) applies specifically to lifting equipment. The regulations require the equipment must be suitable for its intended use, properly maintained, regularly inspected, and operated by trained and competent personnel.

The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER) requires all work equipment must be suitable for the task, maintained in a safe condition, and used only by competent operators who have received adequate training.
