Raymond West features a complete lineup of lift truck training choices for your organization, including operator, pedestrian and technician trainings. We feature one of the most comprehensive training programs in Nogales and can deliver both onsite and online classes.

OSHA Forklift Certification

According to section 1910.178(i)(6) of OSHA's Powered Industrial Trucks standard, all employees that operate a lift truck or powered pallet jack need to be fully educated, 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

Hiring and training a good team can be difficult, especially in the material handling industry which has dealt with a shortage of qualified employment candidates workers for the last several years. Offering top notch training can significantly impact retention, recruitment and morale. Safety on the Move ®, Raymond's industry-leading lift truck operator training program, has supported countless organizations in their effort to protect their people, forklifts, and materials since its debut.

When you educate your equipment operators in the right manner you can amplify your productivity and efficiency throughout every workday. Operators that are highly knowledgeable about their equipment tend to take more interest in maintaining it properly. Highly trained teams also have less frequent accidents, resulting in less damage to your equipment, facilities, product and racks.

Pedestrian Training

In any warehouse environment, every worker needs to be vigilant at all times, not just the forklift operators. To that end, Raymond has designed a lift truck pedestrian course that will challenge your entire warehouse team to be hyper-aware and attentive. Our Steps To Safety ™: Pedestrian Safety in a Material Handling Environment program helps employers teach pedestrians how to take accountability in active forklift operations to create productive and safety conscious surroundings. In this coursework, warehouse pedestrians learn to be aware of their surroundings, visual signaling, and the best ways to prevent injuries and accidents.

The Steps To Safety program was developed based on requests for assistance from Raymond customers for a corporate training package that dealt specifically with pedestrians. Steps To Safety encourages employees to apply the strategies explained in the program to specific material handling processes and business environments.

The program can be used as an add on to Raymond's forklift operator training program, Safety On The Move or as a separate course. This program may be facilitated by a local Raymond West Inc expert or by an accredited instructor within your organization.

Virtual Reality Forklift Simulator

In addition to courses, Raymond offers a highly innovative Virtual Reality Simulator, featuring state-of-the-art VR technology to help you develop more competent, productive forklift operators.

The simulator puts trainees on a physical Raymond lift truck in a very convincing virtual warehouse. With virtual reality training, operators can get continuous feedback while dealing with lifelike "real world" scenarios.

Forklift Technician Training

Apart from operator and pedestrian trainings, we offer continuing education for your team of forklift technicians. These courses will keep your technical experts up to speed on the latest tools, technologies, and techniques for maintenance and repair. Customer Technician Courses can be arranged at your facility, your local Raymond West Inc facility or Raymond's corporate headquarters.
