Naas Driving Academy’s training centre can provide training for both private individuals and companies.  We provide training in Counter Balance Forklift Trucks, Reach Trucks and Power Pallet Trucks.  This forklift training is provided through our sister company Essential Driver & Safety Solutions

Many accidents occur through untrained forklift drivers who are unaware of the forklifts capabilities and limitations. Health and Safety regulations stipulate that all drivers operating forklifts must have certification. All of our trainers are accredited and approved RTITB instructors. Our training can be conducted at our premises using our equipment or we can arrange for a trainer to train your staff on site. To discuss this option please contact Sue or Aoife on 045-879969
