Telehandler Training
Our telehandler training course provides operators with the knowledge and practical skills to safely operate telescopic handlers on construction, agricultural and industrial sites. Telehandlers combine significant reach, height capability and load capacity — making proper operator training essential for the safety of both the operator and those working nearby.
The course covers machine controls and familiarisation, load chart interpretation, safe load handling and stability principles, operating with different attachments including forks, buckets and man-riding platforms, working at height with loads, manoeuvring in confined areas, and pre-use inspection. Operators also learn about the specific stability risks of telehandler operation, including the effects of ground conditions, boom extension and load position on machine balance.
Training is delivered on-site using your own machine, ensuring the assessment is relevant to the equipment and environment your operators work in every day. The course suits novice operators and those renewing existing certification, and typically takes one to three days depending on numbers and experience level.
On successful completion, operators receive recognised telehandler certification aligned with CPCS and NPORS standards, meeting the requirements of principal contractors and current HSE guidance.
