Weekly Forklift Training Updates: Reach Truck Focus, Bendi Courses & Nationwide Onsite Delivery
Last week’s forklift training updates at 4KS Forklift Training showcased a strong focus on Reach Truck courses, combined Counterbalance and Reach programmes, and a busy schedule of onsite training delivered across the UK.
From Birmingham to Peterborough – and multiple client sites nationwide – it was another productive week helping operators and businesses stay compliant, confident and fully qualified.
Birmingham Training Centre - Reach Truck Takes the Spotlight
Reach Truck training led the calendar at our Birmingham centre last week, with a wide range of candidates completing:
- Reach Truck Novice courses
- Reach Truck back-to-back conversions
- Reach Truck refresher training
Alongside this, we welcomed candidates from the UK’s largest vehicle manufacturer completing their RTITB Accredited Counterbalance B1 Novice course, continuing a long-standing training partnership.
We also delivered:
- A Combined Counterbalance & Reach Truck course
- A Bendi (Pivot Steer) Novice course for the UK’s leading supplier of garden machinery and equipment
With private individuals and company-sponsored candidates attending throughout the week, Birmingham remained exceptionally busy.


Onsite Training - Nationwide Delivery Across Multiple Sectors
Our mobile instructors delivered onsite training across several locations and industries.
Highlights included:
- Counterbalance conversions from Bendi for a world-leading developer of ergonomic assistive devices and patient handling equipment in Kidderminster
- Counterbalance training with clamp familiarisation for a leader in sustainable packaging and paper in Birmingham
- PPT (Powered Pallet Truck) courses for a cheese manufacturing client in Nantwich
- Additional PPT training for our medical healthcare distributor client in Birmingham
Our onsite delivery ensures minimal disruption to operations while maintaining full compliance with RTITB standards.


Peterborough Training Centre - Combined & Refresher Courses
Our Peterborough centre also had a strong week, delivering:
- Counterbalance Novice and Refresher courses
- Combined Counterbalance & Reach Truck training
- RTITB accredited refresher programmes
Candidates included both company bookings and private individuals looking to strengthen their qualifications and improve employability.
