How On Campus

Become job ready to use a forklift and you can be employed in virtually every industry. In particular, forklift drivers play an integral role in moving loads for shipping, construction, warehouse and distribution and logistics sectors.

This course provides real, hands-on experience to allow you to become an efficient and safe forklift driver – learn from highly skilled operators and be guided through the process of functioning this useful machine.

The two-day length of this course at South Metropolitan Tafe allows adequate time to grasp the theory and get the practice to feel ready when it comes to testing time, and a second opportunity to pass is offered for free if needed.

Note – Upon successful completion of this you will be issued a Notice of Assessment to apply for a nationally recognised High Risk Work Licence in forklift. This is valid for 60 days, and will give you enough time to apply for the formal licence through Worksafe WA. This application incurs a fee of $92 (payable to Worksafe WA) and can be completed on Worksafes website, in person at their Cannington office or via mail to their locked bag address.
