Forklift University of Texas

Specialties

Forklift Certification is mandatory in the USA. OSHA requires that anyone that operates a forklift be safety trained and evaluated on the lift at the facility they will be working.

Forklift University of Texas covers all the above areas and will even travel to you if you are not in one of those cities.

Our forklift and Aerial lift training is un-​matched and we have facilities to train individuals on how to drive a forklift as well as on line forklift certification classes.

For companies, we have local trainers that will come to your facility and train your operators. Or if you prefer, we can do a Train the Trainer class allowing you to handle your own forklift training in house.

History

Established in 2005.

Forklift University was established in Las Vegas Nevada in 2005, and first came to Texas in 2008 with our first location in Austin. Since then we have branched out across the state with locations in Houston, Lubbock, El Paso too. The Houston location is new in Pasadena, Texas but we have been supporting local businesses in Beaumont, Tracy and other locations across eastern Texas.

We specialize in forklift safety and can train your staff to train your people with a train the trainer program or come in and train all your people in forklift and aerial lift safety.

For those that are looking to be certified for a forklift job, we have certification classes daily and have the only hands on driver training designed to help you learn the best and safest way to operate a forklift.

We are one of the largest forklift training companies in the US but support our students and companies locally with bilingual trainers and local training at your facility.
