Training and certifications
Want to grow and get more work opportunities? At UBN, you can! Below are some examples you can choose from.
Forklift Certificate
Want to get forklift certification? Operating a forklift requires guidance from an instructor. This is how you learn to drive safely and keep the work environment safe. A forklift certificate shows that you have received expert training. It shows that you know how to operate a forklift and what rules apply. UBN works with a specialized training institute for forklift classes. Important to know:
- Duration: depending on your knowledge, maximum 2 days.
- Theory and practice.
- Certificate valid for 5 years.
- From the age of 16 you may drive under supervision with a certificate, and from the age of 18 you may drive independently.
Reach truck certificate
Difference between forklift and reach truck: Forklifts lift up to 4.5 meters, reach trucks can reach up to 12 meters in height. A reach truck has one rear wheel in the middle, which makes the turning circle small. Forklifts have two wheels at the back for stability.
- The seating position is different. With a forklift truck, you sit directly behind the landing, with your gaze towards the lifting mechanism. With a reach truck, you sit a quarter turn. So you have a different field of vision.
- With a reach truck you may only drive indoors. Forklifts are equipped with pneumatic tires, which is why they may also be used outdoors and on public roads.
Reach truck training
Just like with a forklift control, it is recommended to follow a reach truck training for a reach truck function. This prevents accidents, you know what dangers there are and how to work safely.
If you have successfully completed the training, you will receive an officially recognized certificate that you must carry with you at work. Your reach truck certificate is just like a driver's license for a car, but then proof that you are authorized to drive the reach truck.
UBN works together with a specialized training institute where you can follow reach truck lessons or refresher lessons. Important to know:
- The duration of the training depends on your knowledge of driving a reach truck. Maximum time is 2 days.
- The reach truck training consists of a theoretical and a practical part.
- The reach truck certificate is valid for 5 years.
- You may drive a reach truck with a reach truck certificate and always under supervision from the age of 16. From the age of 18, you may drive a reach truck independently with a reach truck certificate.
VCA certificate
SCC training is a tool to better comply with the Occupational Health and Safety Act. You gain knowledge about safety and gain insight into recognizing unsafe situations. After the training you can better respond to certain situations by taking the right measures to prevent accidents. This makes you aware of health and safety in your workplace.
VAPRO training
With a VAPRO course you will gain up-to-date knowledge of the process industry. Obtaining this valuable certificate will allow you to work as an operator. An operator is responsible for one or more machines that make and/or process products.
Language courses and other courses
At UBN, we also offer the opportunity to take language courses to enhance your employability. Is other training needed to start your ideal job? Ask about the possibilities, we are happy to get in touch.
