Our forklift trainers are registered with Competenz as certified Forklift Trainers who monitor on behalf of WorkSafe NZ
The Forklift (F) endorsement course only covers driver licencing requirements, allowing you to operate a forklift on a road.  

We also offer the Forklift Operator Training Course, allowing you to operate a forklift in a workplace (it is recommended that this renewed every three years).

We recommend that you complete a Forklift Operator Training Course at the same time as the (F) endorsement to cover both driver licencing and health and safety obligations.
An (F) Drivers Licence endorsement is needed to operate a forklift on a "road" (see NZTA definition of a road). (Unit standard 18496). A pre-requisite is that the trainee must hold a current full driver's licence, minimum Class 1 (car)
The licence endorsement and the licence class systems work together, your licence has to cover both the type of vehicle and the weight of the vehicle you are driving
​A Class 1 licence with an (F) endorsement covers a forklift with a gross laden weight of up to 18,000kg. A Class 2 licence with an (F) endorsement covers a forklift with gross laden weight of more than 18,000kg
