Raymond West features a complete lineup of lift truck training choices for your business, including operator, pedestrian and technician classes. We feature one of the most comprehensive training programs in Oxnard and can provide either onsite or online options.

OSHA Forklift Certification

As stated in section 1910.178(i)(6) of OSHA's Powered Industrial Trucks standard, all employees that operate a lift truck or motorized pallet jack should be completely educated, tested and certified in order to operate that specific equipment. Moreover, those workers must be recertified every 3 years, or in the event of an accident, job deficiency or equipment change.

Forklift Operator Training

Hiring and training good workers can be difficult, particularly in the material handling industry which has faced a limited number of qualified employment candidates for the last several years. Offering top notch training can substantially improve recruitment, retention and workplace satisfaction. Safety on the Move ®, Raymond's renowned forklift operator training program, has helped many companies to protect their workers, lift trucks, and materials since its introduction.

When you educate your lift truck operators in the right manner you can maximize your productivity and efficiency throughout every shift. Operators that are thoroughly acquainted with their equipment are inclined to take more interest in proper maintenance. Highly trained teams also have fewer accidents, resulting in less damage to your facilities, equipment, product and racks.

Pedestrian Training

In any warehouse environment, all team members should be vigilant all the time, not just the equipment operators. To that end, Raymond has painstakingly put together a forklift pedestrian course that will challenge your entire warehouse team to be hyper-aware and attentive. Our Steps To Safety ™: Pedestrian Safety in a Material Handling Environment program helps employers teach all warehouse workers how to take accountability in active forklift operations to maintain safety conscious and productive environments. In this training, warehouse pedestrians learn to be aware of their surroundings, visual signaling, and best practices to prevent injuries and accidents.

The Steps To Safety program was developed based on requests for assistance from Raymond customers for a corporate training package that dealt specifically with pedestrians. Steps To Safety encourages employees to apply the strategies taught in the course to specific material handling processes and business environments.

The program can be used as a complement to Raymond's lift truck operator training course, Safety On The Move or as an independent course. This program may be facilitated by a local Raymond West expert or by an accredited trainer within your company.

Virtual Reality Forklift Simulator

As a complement to its educational content, Raymond has recently released a technologically advanced Virtual Reality Simulator, featuring cutting-edge VR technology to help you train more confident, productive lift truck operators.

The VR device positions users on a physical Raymond lift truck in an extremely life-like virtual warehouse. Through VR technology, operators can get instant responses while dealing with lifelike "real world" challenges.

Forklift Technician Training

Apart from pedestrian and operator trainings, Raymond offers training programs for your team of forklift technicians. These courses will keep your technical experts current on the latest technologies, tools, and repair and maintenance procedures. Customer Technician Courses can be arranged at your facility, your local Raymond West branch or Raymond's corporate headquarters.
