OVERVIEW
Designed to be compact and versatile, this piece of equipment is commonly used in warehouse, retail, and manufacturing settings. The simple appearance of a powered pallet jack can be dangerously deceiving because this machine actually leaves the most room for injury. Help stop accidents before they happen with this comprehensive and thorough training program.

Sixteen interactions capture and retain the learner's attention and interest. Interactions help assess whether your workers are actually mastering the knowledge and skills necessary to work safely with powered pallet jacks.

When the system discovers an area where a worker is having difficulty, it patiently reviews that material until 100% of your workers respond correctly to 100% of the assessments for 100% of the course's learning objectives. That's half of Mastery's 600% Guarantee.
