The benefit of e-Truck

• Completely online – learners can do their theory training anywhere, any time, at their own pace before practical training
• Create real behaviour change – look at the reasons behind operator behaviour as well as the relevant theory
• Engaging and memorable – learners retain information better from digital storytelling and are better prepared for the workplace
• Reduced training time – for a novice this could take a 5 day operator training course down to 3 days
• Minimise costs and downtime – candidates are out the business for a shorter time
• Flexibility for Instructors – make a 5 day course more engaging, or free up time to sell more practical training
• Lifetime license – return to content to refresh operator knowledge or use eTruck as part of toolbox talks

On successful completion of the forklift truck novice operator course the learner will be provided with an RTITB certificate of completion. This will give learners the ability to progress within their workplace.

With experience learners can progress on and train to become a Fork Lift Truck Experienced Operator.
