Posted By Howard That would depend on what industry you are in. I cant recommend anyone, but here is the list of accredited bodies from the HSE
5 There are 5 recognised accrediting bodies:
1) the Association of Industrial Truck Trainers whose accreditation scheme is known as the Independent Training Standards Scheme and Register (ITSSAR);
2) the Construction Industry Training Board whose scheme is part of the Certificate of Training Achievement Scheme (CTA) which covers many types of construction plant. HSC's recognition is only for lift truck training;
3) Lantra National Training Organisation (previously ATB Landbase);
4) the National Plant Operators Registration Scheme; and
5) RTITB Ltd.

Posted By Jerry Lucey RTITB Services produce a very worthwhile pre-shift check for operators. This is in duplicate book form.
Checks take three forms. There is the pre-shift check which is to be carried out by the operator. There is a 50 hour check which is a more indepth check which is carried out by a competent person and the six monthly check required under legislation. The COP recommends that all three checks should be part of your maintenance schedule.
With the training of operators there are different bodies accredited by the HSE, all are acceptable, and the standard of training is fairly standard, however they do cover different industries i.e. RTITB and AITT cover industrial whereas CITB cover construction.
If the supplier is to provide training as part of their package this is great, however you need to ensure that if such training is carried out that it is certified and that the Instructor/ Examiner giving the training records his/ her registeration no on the certificate for this to be valid. All accredited bodies maintain a register of their instructors. The certificate should also display; the type of truck, motive power, lifting capacity, attachments and date of the training etc. Basic training as a rule should take in the region of 37 hours for a novice operator. This will need to be followed up with specific job and familiarisation training.
Most suppliers of lift trucks will demonstrate their equipment when delivering, and this may involve the prospective operators being given guidance on the use of the particular machine, including practice, however this does not satisfy the requirement under the Code of Practice as regards training of operators.
If I can be of any further assistance to anyone in this area they are more than welcome to contact me direct.
Regards, Jerry
