Is it time that serious trainers in our industry take the lead in developing a common "training process" standard for Powered Industrial Trucks (Forklifts)?

It seems clear that if we do not take the lead in establishing something more effective than what we have now, no government is about to do more than they have been doing to affect the improvements we say we want in our industry.

Can you imagine what our group of (obviously) impassioned people can accomplish if they can find the common purpose to focus our individual resources? I say we stop looking to the government's leadership to drive what we really want and start looking for leadership in the mirror.

That survey might help get things started.

What say ye?

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
