MHEDA: How Your Dealership Can Take Advantage Of CFT Registration Information:

This webinar, How Your Dealership Can Take Advantage Of CFT (Certified Forklift Technician) Certification, will take place on August 22 from 12pm-1pm CT. This is a FREE Webinar and is open to all MHEDA Members and Non Members. Everyone is required to complete the registration form to save a seat.

Description:

The shortage of highly skilled forklift technicians continues to be an ongoing trend that presents significant hiring challenges to dealerships of all sizes. To combat this, many dealerships report that they have recruited automotive technicians into their industry or look for students who are in programs like hydraulics, diesel, and industrial maintenance because there is not a traditional forklift pathway for students. Until now. The Certified Forklift Technician (CFT) is the first industry-wide, fundamental certification available to all dealerships and schools to train, certify and promote great careers in forklift maintenance and repair.

Join MHEDA and MSSC to better understand the elements of the CFT program, how your dealership can be using this training in-house and how your dealership can connect with local technical schools to offer this.

Why is it important for the industry?
How can I get started?
