IVES was one of the best Train the Trainer courses I've ever taken! Tons of good information that even I wasn't aware of when anyone was operating one of the core 4 pieces of equipment. I have taken the excellent safety knowledge that IVES has provided me with and applied their information in many of my own training sessions to my employees in the classroom as well as the field. It has been very rewarding as a fellow safety professional to know that I am making a difference in the aspects of safety to all my companies' employees that I share my knowledge with. IVES has not only provided me with excellent training and knowledge but accomplishing the ultimate goal as a safety professional of ensuring that all my employees return home as safe as they came to work.

The training material was so well laid out and easy to follow that it kept everyone in the class engaged and focused on learning. If I had to give a recommendation on a company to use for training IVES would be my first, second, and third choice.

Kelly | Safety Manager | Prism Electric

I had the pleasure of attending a train the trainer course through IVES for boomlift and scissor lift. I've attended several training programs on various equipment and machinery and never have I felt so comfortable using or operating new equipment as I did with IVES. I had very minimal experience with operating the lifts and when I jumped on them after sitting through the training material I felt as if I had operated them for years. The training material was so well laid out and easy to follow that it kept everyone in the class engaged and focused on learning. If I had to give a recommendation on a company to use for training IVES would be my first, second, and third choice.

I tell every class I teach that IVES is the best program and recommend it highly, having seen and helped replaced several other PE training programs that lacked the integrity and standards of the IVES program. Thank you for your continued dedication to creating safe work environments, empowering people and businesses to get the job done right with the right knowledge backing them up.

Anne | Safety/Loss Prevention | Lowes

I first started driving Power Equipment in 2009-2010 and the company I worked for used the IVES program and IVES Certified Trainers. It was AMAZING, in two weeks I had been licensed on two different pieces of equipment and felt confident in my technical knowledge and skills. By the end of that first year, I was asked to become an IVES Certified Trainer and jumped at the opportunity. I have now been driving and training operators for Over 6 years and have expanded my training skills to consult with other companies on setting up programs and ensuring they are doing right by their operators. I tell every class I teach that IVES is the best program and recommend it highly, having seen and helped replaced several other PE training programs that lacked the integrity and standards of the IVES program. Thank you for your continued dedication to creating safe work environments, empowering people and businesses to get the job done right with the right knowledge backing them up.

This is by far the hardest, yet most rewarding course I have ever taken. Very intense, informative training. We just implemented our own training program, and this was the definite way to go. The instructor was fantastic, made the class enjoyable, made us want to learn.

This is by far the hardest, yet most rewarding course I have ever taken. Very intense, informative training. We just implemented our own training program and this was the definite way to go. The instructor was fantastic, made the class enjoyable, made us want to learn. He gave us so many examples of how to teach this to our guys, how to make it interesting and how to handle the guy who "knows it all". Not only did I get a great training experience I also learned a lot as well. Would recommend this to any company looking to grow and expand and implement their own training. You cannot go wrong with the entire IVES experience.

Thank You IVES for the wonderful training program and opportunity to maintain my skills and knowledge through your training programs. It wasn't until I went through my training that I truly understood the significance behind forklift safety.

Rosa | Logistics & HR Supervisor | Newly Weds Foods

I requested to become a Certified Forklift Trainer in my 7th year while working with Continental Mills. It wasn't until I went through my training that I truly understood the significance behind forklift safety. To this day, I still promote forklift safety at all times when I walk through the plant. I have been promoted to HR Manager and Safety Coordinator for the new owners Newly Weds Foods for almost 4 years. I recently celebrated 25 years of service at this plant and of all of my accomplishments; my knowledge of forklifts and the greater importance of safety will be instilled in me for my lifetime. I don't hesitate to stop and coach any new driver or long-term driver of the importance to not get complacent in their role when it comes to their safety or the safety of their co-workers. Forklift safety is important enough to me; that when I retire; I hope to have the opportunity to continue to teach and certify forklift safety in our community. Thank You IVES for the wonderful training program and opportunity to maintain my skills and knowledge through your training programs.

The training and tools that I received from IVES have taken our forklift and all terrain forklift training to the next level. The train the trainer program really teaches you the in-depth specifics of the equipment, but it also teaches you how to apply this knowledge while working.

David | Certified Trainer | City of Stockton

The training and tools that I received from IVES have taken our forklift and all terrain forklift training to the next level. The train the trainer program really teaches you the in-depth specifics of the equipment, but it also teaches you how to apply this knowledge while working. And the best part about the program is it teaches you how to teach others how to work safer. If you're a large city or a small business this program will work for you.

IVES has been my go-to for all of my material handling needs. Customer service has been excellent for over 10 years of business. Their knowledge and constant updates ensure my business moves forward, and my students get the best training available.

Travis | Certified Trainer | Airborne Forklift & Safety Consultants

IVES has been my go-to for all of my material handling needs. I have personally attended multiple classes and use Ives for my instructors training classes. Anyone can meet standards, but Ives exceeds them. Getting the materials I need is a phone call or email away. Customer service has been excellent for over 10 years of business. Their knowledge and constant updates ensure my business moves forward, and my students get the best training available. Instructor manuals and class folders are far more detailed than any other material handling books I have ever seen. If you want the best, IVES has it. Thank you, IVES, for helping my business grow and keeping my students safe.

IVES Training Group is very well known to be the leader in training for the safe and efficient operation of mobile equipment. Well, I made the right choice. My train the trainer course exceeded my expectations by allowing me to understand not only the stability and operation of the powered industrial truck, but also instructional techniques on how to train our operators.

Jay | Training Coordinator | Chevron Phillips Chemical Company

Hi, my name is Jay Joiner, and I am the training coordinator for a brand new "world's largest" chemical process unit that started up last year. This unit has a 36k forklift that the operators are required to use to move 6k cylinders full of pyrophoric material off of trucks and around in the unit. This powered industrial truck is more than intimidating to look not to mention climb on and operate. I had a huge task of becoming trainer certified and return to our facility to train and refresh the training to our operators every three years. So, I did what made sense, I turned to the professionals. IVES Training Group is very well known to be the leader in training for the safe and efficient operation of mobile equipment. Well, I made the right choice. My train the trainer course exceeded my expectations by allowing me to understand not only the stability and operation of the powered industrial truck, but also instructional techniques on how to train our operators. I returned to our plant being able to look at that 36k forklift in a different light and possessed the skills that have made me viewed by my peers as "a good trainer." I owe all of that to IVES Training Group for not just selling me a product but providing me with a valuable experience!
