Approximately a dozen seniors from four VPS high schools will take part in forklift certification training on Saturday, May 21, at Fort Vancouver High School, 5700 E 18 St., Vancouver. The training begins at 7:30 a.m. with classroom instruction and simulator exercises. Certification testing using a forklift will take place at approximately 9:30 a.m.
The training is possible thanks to the purchase of forklift simulators at four VPS high schools. The district’s Career and Technical Education department purchased the simulators. This is the first year the training and certification has been offered.
Students who successfully complete the course will earn forklift operation certification, opening doors to the workforce right out of high school.
