What is an "accredited Forklift training company"?
In other words, who provided that "accredited" for them?
anyone can _claim_ to "follows OSHA, ANSI and ASME standards", but I am pretty sure I would expect them to not only follow, but train "_completely, and fully_" to the particular standards.
Someone should let you know, as a forklift trainer-[and legally a 'forklift expert'], we don't follow ASME standards standards as much any more, the current standards body that has taken over responsibility for powered industrial trucks made in the USA, is now [for some 7 years, in 2014] the Industrial Truck Standards Development Foundation, and their website is itsdf dot org (and I am pretty sure neither ITSDF nor OSHA nor ASME nor ANSI -never- -ever- provide any sort of "accreditation").
I would certainly expect to be alerted by/to claims that can not be substantiated, such as "accreditation" where no actual accreditation body exists.
Jerri c, please educate me/us about this "accreditation".
Thanx
