Weekly Forklift Training Updates: Reach Truck, Counterbalance, PPT & More!

It’s time for your weekly forklift training updates from 4KS Forklift Training!
As always, our team has been busy delivering accredited training across our Birmingham and Peterborough centres and on-site at client locations across the UK. From Reach Trucks to PPTs, Bendi to LLOP, it’s been another week packed with practical learning and new qualifications!

Birmingham Training Centre

Last week, Reach Truck training was undoubtedly the most in-demand course at our Birmingham centre! We had a wave of candidates booking onto Reach Truck Novice courses as well as the increasingly popular Combined Counterbalance and Reach Truck course.

Counterbalance Novice training remained a strong staple, with candidates from the UK’s largest vehicle manufacturer completing their RTITB B1 Counterbalance Novice course successfully.

We also ran several PPT (Powered Pallet Truck) training sessions throughout the week and across the weekend helping operators from different industries meet essential warehouse standards. Let’s not forget our ever growing Bendi Pivot-steer training as well throughout the week.

Onsite Training Delivery

It was a diverse week for our mobile team too:

A5 Pallet Stacker training delivered onsite for an automotive parts manufacturer client
LLOP Novice training at our automotive distributor client’s Bristol site
Bendi Novice training for our catering industry client — right at their site

Our instructors continued to deliver accredited, practical training across the country — tailored to each client’s truck type and operations.

Peterborough Training Centre Highlights

It was an action-packed week at our Peterborough centre too, where the Combined Counterbalance and Reach Truck course continues to be a top choice for new operators.

We also trained a candidate from Net Zero Panels on a Counterbalance course, and hosted multiple weekend sessions for both Reach and Counterbalance, plus a PPT course to wrap up a very full schedule.
