Starting on Monday 6 February, you’ll learn how to operate a forklift truck and develop your confidence in operating safely within a work based environment. At the end of the training, you’ll undertake a recognised forklift truck qualification which will help you to apply for jobs requiring this qualification.
This training takes place at Oakwell Training Academy, near the Barnsley Metrodome. Training is over five full days from Monday to Friday.
If you’re aged 19 and over, live in the Barnsley area, and you’re not currently working, you can apply at employmentsupport@barnsley.gov.uk or call 01226 775100.
