Thanks to joseph h and LorieL for your ideas. if I understand your recommendations for the "in-house instructor can DO" items, I might add them as the following "actions":
6. Operate a truck, and discuss forklift safety as a "model" for others.
7. Talk about (share) examples of good forklift lessons learned from personal life examples.
8. [Before selection, volunteer-in ONLY if you (new instructor) can demonstrate the desire and interest to help operators improve their skills through instruction and coaching. If not, P-L-E-A-S-E DO something other than forklift instructing]
I'm hoping others might join us to specify "can DO items" for new instructors. Who knows? If the list gets long enough, we might be starting a move toward developing Forklift Instructor Standards...something that we and others have discussed before!
Best wishes,
joe_m
