      I can’t believe how easy it is to get a forklift certification. All online, never have to touch an actual forklift.

      I don’t know if that’s common knowledge, but I just found out because I went through the process myself to get certified.

        That varies by jurisdiction.

        Where I am, it requires a theory test and an in-person practical test.

        And you need to re-certify every 3 years.

          I’m in Illinois. After the online stuff, they sent me a certificate which has a signature line for someone at whatever company hires me, to be signed after they train me on the specific truck they have.
