Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a forklift licence in Ireland?

There is no state-issued licence. Employers must ensure operators are trained and competent, so a certificate of training from a recognised provider is what people call a forklift licence.

Novice or refresher: which do I need?

Choose novice if you have little or no experience. Choose refresher if you already hold forklift training and need to renew it.

Do I need separate training for a pallet truck?

Yes. Powered pallet trucks are a separate category. See Forklift PPT training at /courses/lift-truck-operator-ppt-ireland.
