ITSSAR Instructor Training

The costs of constant training can quickly add up for employers, but by qualifying one of your own team as an instructor you can provide ongoing career development for everyone and save money.

Most employers would like to offer their team regular training opportunities to help build their capabilities and the company’s, but cost can be an issue. For years we’ve been helping businesses find ways to advance even the most senior operators and cut training bills in the process with our ITSSAR instructor training. Ideal for qualified fork lift truck operators with plenty of experience or trainers who want to gain a recognised accreditation.

The course requires your counterbalance certificate to be less than a year old so the ITSSAR instructor course can easily be combined with a one day refresher course to bring your certification up to date. On completing the course the instructor will be fully qualified to teach and train on all industrial counterbalance and reach trucks they are qualified to operate themselves.
