on-site-trainer-upgradeAlready have IVES Certified Trainers on staff but need to add new equipment to their credentials? We’ve got you covered with our On-Site Trainer Upgrade Program. This program is designed for IVES Certified Trainers who wish to add other pieces of equipment such as forklifts, mobile elevating work platforms or loaders to their current credentials. This program is delivered at your site and makes use of the actual equipment and site conditions encountered at your workplace.

We use proven materials and aids at your company, using your classroom for theory and basic understanding of operational techniques. Trainees will gain the knowledge, skills, tools and support they need to effectively communicate the required classroom theory concepts, conduct hands-on equipment specific safety training as well as testing and evaluation to certify your operators. Trainers will receive an updated certificate of completion and wallet card with their picture on it.
