Forklift Training

In addition to selling and servicing forklifts and other industrial equipment, Welch Equipment Company also offers in-depth operator and equipment technician training courses. Our standard-format classes are designed for up to 12 people and generally last three to five hours. We also offer “Train The Trainer” classes, where we teach you to train your employees about operator safety; these sessions are available for up to five people and last five to seven hours.

Forklift Operator Training

Welch trainers use such programs as “Raymond: Safety On The Move” and “Liftow: Safe Lift” to demonstrate proper forklift operation practices. Classes take place Monday through Friday during normal business hours, and we offer training materials for customers to purchase. Whether you are looking to learn the trade for the first time or you need your three-year refresher course to meet OSHA regulations, Welch Equipment Company has a training course that will fit your needs.

Welch’s OSHA-certified forklift training program is designed to give operators the skills and techniques they need to use material handling equipment properly and safely. We help our customers stay compliant with OSHA standards to prevent accidents and avoid costly fines. Training sessions are available at Welch locations, or our trainers can come to you. We offer video training courses as well as in-person training and lecture programs, and can help you earn your operator permit.
