It depends on the structure. A forklift licence genuinely can’t be safely trained and assessed back-to-back in a single rushed session — but it also doesn’t need to take multiple days of classroom time.
At FMS Training, we split the process for exactly this reason:
- Day 1: A full day of hands-on, practical forklift training with an experienced trainer — real seat time, real scenarios, not just theory.
- Assessment day (separate): A focused, approximately 2-hour licence assessment once you’ve had time to consolidate your training.
This gives you the benefits of a genuine one-day training block — fast, practical, no wasted classroom time — without the risk of being assessed the moment you’ve finished learning.
FMS Training is backed by over 1,300 five-star reviews and is a Nationally Recognised RTO (45189). Book your forklift licence course — from $470 (weekday) or $550 (weekend).
