Leavitt Machinery
Edmonton Training Center

Our Edmonton forklift training facility offers a full range of operator training classes regularly scheduled throughout the year. Our programs are designed to cater to adult learners and our experienced trainers utilize both multimedia and visual presentations as well as interactive discussions to deliver our curriculum.

Training is reinforced through workbooks, supplementary hand outs and a practical component. We understand that not everyone learns at the same pace, which is why we offer additional practice time for new users and novice drivers.
