On-Site Forklift Certificate Training Across the UK

AITT-accredited forklift certificate training for UK businesses

The certificate is the point of the training: it’s the documented proof — for you, your employer, insurers and the HSE — that an operator has been trained and tested to national standards. Our courses lead to AITT-accredited operator certification, issued per truck type, recognised across the UK.

Our nationwide network of fully insured, AITT-accredited instructors and examiners brings forklift certificate training directly to your site. Operators train on your own equipment, in the environment they actually work in, to full HSE L117 and PUWER standards.

We fit training around your operation — days, shifts or weekends — with transparent daily rates, no hidden charges and a free same-day quote.

Alongside this course we provide counterbalance forklift training, reach truck training, telehandler training, Teletruk training and more — each available as novice, experienced, conversion, refresher training. Whether you’re looking for a forklift licence or searching for AITT forklift training, our instructors can help.

Forklift Certificate explained

What forklift certificate do you receive — and what does it prove?

An operator’s certificate records who was trained, on what truck type and capacity, to what standard, and when — the exact evidence HSE’s L117 expects an employer to hold. It’s issued after the operator passes both the theory and practical tests on an accredited course, whether novice, experienced-operator, conversion or refresher.

Certificates are truck-type specific and should be refreshed periodically (L117 suggests every 3–5 years). If your operators’ certificates are missing, expired or from an unrecognised provider, we can assess and re-certificate them quickly on your own trucks, at your premises, anywhere in the UK.

Is your team legally covered?
If an operator can’t show valid, in-date certification, your business may not be compliant. We’ll help you close that gap quickly with on-site training across the UK.
