How your in-house program works
Formal instruction is one part of the process
The employer must ensure that operators receive formal instruction, practical training, and an evaluation of their performance in the workplace. Trainers and evaluators must have the knowledge, training and experience to teach operators and evaluate their competence. A course certificate alone does not establish those qualifications. Relevant previous training may count under 29 CFR 1910.178(l)(5); the employer remains responsible for operator competence and the certification record.

Common questions
Do I need one kit per operator, or does one kit cover everyone?
One $399 kit supplies reusable training materials for your operation, with no per-operator or renewal fee. Printable materials can be reproduced for training your operators and new hires. Your trainer’s time, practical training, and workplace evaluations are still required.
Which forklift classes does the training kit cover?
The kit covers warehouse forklifts in classes 1, 4 and 5 (electric, gas, diesel and LPG), order pickers and pallet jacks in classes 2 and 3 (high-lift straddle, side loaders and stock pickers), and rough-terrain forklifts in class 7 (straight mast and telescopic). OSHA requires training specific to the type of truck each operator is assigned, under 29 CFR 1910.178(l)(3), so the class list is what determines whether the kit fits your fleet. Class 6 tractors are not covered.
What does the forklift training kit cost, and are there any other charges?
The kit is $399 as a one-time purchase. There is no per-operator fee, no annual fee and no charge to run the training again for new hires or for the three-year operator re-evaluation. What the price does not include is a qualified trainer: someone at your company has to deliver the training and evaluate the operators, and if nobody on staff is ready to do that, the trainer certification is a separate purchase.
Who runs the training once I have the kit? Do I need a certified trainer?
The employer chooses a trainer or evaluator who has the knowledge, training and experience required by 29 CFR 1910.178(l)(2)(iii). Familiarity with equipment alone is not enough. The $149 trainer course helps prepare that person; the $499 bundle includes both the course and this kit. OSHA does not issue forklift-trainer licenses or approve providers.
Is a training kit enough to satisfy OSHA on its own?
The employer must ensure that operators receive formal instruction, practical training, and an evaluation of their performance in the workplace. Trainers and evaluators must have the knowledge, training and experience to teach operators and evaluate their competence. A course certificate alone does not establish those qualifications. Relevant previous training may count under 29 CFR 1910.178(l)(5); the employer remains responsible for operator competence and the certification record. The kit supplies curriculum, checklists and record templates to support that process; buying it does not by itself make a workplace compliant.
What is actually in the kit, and is it physical or a download?
It is physical and digital together: a printed curriculum, a PowerPoint presentation, and the whole program on a USB flash drive so nothing has to be downloaded and everything can be printed without limit. Inside you get separate step-by-step guides for the trainer and for the operators, printable templates for certificates of completion, operator cards, student handouts, a hands-on evaluation checklist and guide, and equipment inspection checklists, plus operator safety documents covering personal responsibility, accountability for unsafe acts, and site safety guidelines.
