Worksafe Victoria has a free pdf publication intended for managers, supervisors as well as operators entitled "Forklift Safety - Reducing the Risk". It is currently being revised to include the new AU training/licensing regulations. You can put your name on a notification list for when it becomes available.

ACT WorkCover has a free pdf publication based on the 2005 Worksafe Victoria publication "Forklift Safety - Reducing the Risk " entitled "A Guide to Forklift Safety". References to training/licensing will be outdated but the rest of the material should still be appropriate.

Google: ACT WorkCover Guide to Forklift Safety

These publications should be helpful on key forklift safety and regulatory issues.

Forget the one hour training time unless you are looking at one hour per month until all desired safety and regulatory issues are covered. One hour alone is not sufficient to cover the material that managers and supervisors need to know.

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
