Course Information

Candidates can choose between AITT or RTITB forklift instructor courses, both designed to meet the standards set by the respective accrediting bodies.
These courses are intended for seasoned operators looking to become instructors or for former instructors seeking to return after a break.
To pass either course, candidates must successfully complete an examination that assesses their basic operating skills, relevant knowledge, and practical instructional capabilities.

Both AITT and RTITB are members of ABA and are nationally recognised accrediting bodies. The choice between them is entirely up to you and your specific needs.
