About This Course
Our Telehandler Training course teaches operators to use telescopic handlers safely on construction sites, farms and industrial yards. Telehandlers combine reach, height and rough-terrain capability, so operators need a solid understanding of load charts and stability.
The course follows the RTITB structure, covering theory, pre-use inspections and practical lifting and placing tasks, and finishes with a formal assessment. Training can be delivered at your site.
