Weekly Forklift Training Updates: Counterbalance Courses, Pivot Steer Training & Evening Shift Delivery

It was another productive week for 4KS Forklift Training as we delivered RTITB accredited forklift training across our Birmingham and Peterborough centres, alongside multiple onsite training programmes around the UK. See our forklift training updates for last week below:

Birmingham Training Centre

The Counterbalance Novice course was the most popular programme of the week at our Birmingham training centre. We welcomed a mixture of private individuals and company candidates, including trainees from the UK’s largest vehicle manufacturer, all working towards their RTITB accredited qualifications.

Alongside this, we delivered a Combined Counterbalance and Reach Truck course, giving candidates the opportunity to gain certification on multiple types of material handling equipment in one programme.

Several candidates also completed Reach Truck conversions, while others returned from the previous week to finish their back-to-back training schedules. Weekend courses also began for new candidates looking to complete their training outside of normal working hours.

Onsite Training Across the UK

Our instructors travelled across the country to deliver tailored onsite forklift training to support client operations.

This included:

• Evening Counterbalance training for a bakery client in Leicester
• A Counterbalance experienced course in Nantwich
• Pivot Steer and Counterbalance training at a Bristol RDC for Europe’s largest automotive parts distributor

Delivering evening shift training was a key highlight this week, demonstrating the flexibility 4KS provides to ensure companies can train their teams without interrupting production schedules.

Peterborough Training Centre

Our Peterborough centre remained busy with a Combined Counterbalance and Reach Truck course, alongside refresher training and candidates from the RESTART scheme.

All candidates successfully completed their RTITB accredited training, continuing our strong success rate across both training centres.
