Eversafe Academy
Publishes a 35-hour without-Class-3 forklift course, including assessment, at S$545 including GST.

Wong Fong Academy
Publishes a 34-hour without-Class-3 course with classroom/practical training and written/practical assessments.
Confirm the full fee and GST, language, venue, attendance, assessment/resits and employer acceptance; no funding, licence or job outcome is guaranteed here.
Which forklift course do you need?
The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) requires forklift operators to take the WSQ Operate Forklift Course. Operators using forklifts above 5 tonnes also need the Heavy Forklift Course. If you are booking for an existing operator, check whether they need refresher training. From 1 January 2027, employers must ensure their forklift operators complete refresher training at least once every three years.
MOM does not issue forklift licences. Keep each operator’s course certificate and latest refresher completion date together, then use MOM’s circular to check when the next refresher is due before booking.
Choose a course for the learner’s existing qualification, Class 3 status and intended equipment. For learners without Class 3, Eversafe publishes a 35-hour course including assessment at S$545 including GST; Wong Fong publishes a 34-hour course with classroom/practical work and written/practical assessment. Eversafe separately publishes heavy-forklift training above five tonnes at S$817.50 including GST, requiring prior forklift qualification and experience. That advanced course is not a beginner substitute. Confirm language, prerequisites, attendance, assessment/resit costs and employer acceptance. Funding and credits depend on the actual learner, sponsor and approval; a published subsidised example is not everyone’s payable fee.
