Raymond offers a full lineup of forklift corporate education choices for your organization, including pedestrian, operator and technician trainings. We feature one of the most in-depth educational programs in Los Angeles and can deliver both online and onsite classes.

OSHA Forklift Certification

Pursuant to section 1910.178(i)(6) of OSHA's Powered Industrial Trucks standard, all employees that operate a motorized pallet truck or lift truck should be fully trained, tested and certified in order to operate that specific equipment. Moreover, those workers must be recertified every 3 years, or in the event of an accident, job deficiency or equipment change.

Forklift Operator Training

Procuring and training a good team can be challenging, especially in the material handling industry which has dealt with a shortage of qualified workers for many years. Offering top notch training can go a long way toward improving retention, recruitment and morale. Safety on the Move ®, Raymond's industry-leading lift truck operator training program, has assisted many enterprises with their objectives to protect their workers, equipment, and materials since its introduction.

When you coach your forklift operators in the right way you can expand your productivity and efficiency throughout every shift. Operators that know their equipment thoroughly are inclined to take more interest in maintaining it properly. Highly trained teams also have fewer accidents, resulting in less damage to your equipment, facilities, product and racks.

Pedestrian Training

In any material handling operation, all employees need to be cautious all the time, not just the forklift operators. With that objective, Raymond has developed a forklift pedestrian course that will ensure your workers are highly conscious of their surroundings. Raymond's Steps To Safety ™: Pedestrian Safety in a Material Handling Environment program helps employers teach all warehouse workers how to take accountability in active forklift operations to maintain safety conscious and productive environments. In this coursework, pedestrians learn how to stay vigilant in the warehouse, visual communication skills, and best practices to prevent safety incidents and bodily harm.

The Steps To Safety program is the result of repeated requests for help from Raymond customers for a corporate training package that dealt specifically with pedestrians. Steps To Safety encourages the application of the concepts explained in the program to specific business environments and material handling processes.

The program can be used as a complement to Raymond's lift truck operator training program, Safety On The Move or as a separate training. This program can be led by a local Raymond West expert or by a qualified trainer within your organization.

Virtual Reality Forklift Simulator

As a complement to its educational content, Raymond has recently released a technologically advanced Virtual Reality Simulator, featuring industry leading VR technology to help you train more skilled, productive lift truck operators.

The VR device puts users on a physical Raymond forklift in a highly realistic virtual warehouse. Using VR devices, trainees can get instant responses while experiencing convincing "real world" challenges.

Forklift Technician Training

Apart from pedestrian and operator courses, Raymond offers training programs for your in-house technicians. Keep your onsite forklift technicians up to date on the most advanced tools, technologies, and techniques for maintenance and repair. Customer Technician Courses can be arranged at your location, your local Raymond West branch in Santa Fe Springs or Raymond's corporate headquarters.
