A refresher for existing counterbalance lift truck operators to renew skills, update knowledge of safe practice and revalidate their certification.

If you hold a counterbalance lift truck licence that is due for renewal, or if it has been some time since you last operated, a refresher course is the most efficient way to bring your skills and knowledge fully up to date. DJW Training's one-day programme is designed for experienced operators who need to revalidate their certification and reinforce best practice in a structured, supportive environment.

The course revisits the core principles of safe counterbalance lift truck operation, helping you identify any gaps that may have developed over time and ensuring you remain compliant with current industry standards. Practical assessment forms a central part of the day, giving you the opportunity to demonstrate competence with confidence.
