Adding to its suite of online training programs, Genie is has introduced Genie Lift Pro Online Telehandler Operator Training. The training is applicable for all brands of telehandlers and is available now through authorized Genie Lift Pro Training Centers across North America.
“This is an extremely important program for our industry,” said Scott Owyen, global training manager for Terex Aerial Work Platforms. “There are no other similar telehandler training programs currently available online, creating a tremendous demand in the market. It is a very time-consuming subject for our customers to teach in a classroom setting, so our online training program really fits that need.”
The Genie Lift Pro online telehandler training is a high-quality program delivered through a web-based platform. It is designed to satisfy the general training requirements for Class 7 rough terrain forklifts (telehandlers), as defined by the ANSI/ITSDF B56.6 and CSA B335 standards and OSHA 1910.178 regulations.
The four-hour program incorporates current adult learning theory and consists of graphics, narration, video quizzes, and a 57-question exam to provide an interactive learning environment.
Upon passing the exam, the student receives a certificate of completion as proof of training. The online training must be followed by hands-on familiarization from a qualified person and employer authorization to complete the training process to become a qualified operator.
