TMHA Welcomes 15 New Forklift Apprentices Into Training Program

Toyota Material Handling Australia (TMHA) has welcomed one of its biggest crops of forklift technician apprentices in its 2022 Annual Apprentice Intake, with 15 new inductees brought into the program.

An induction ceremony on April 21 saw the 15 new apprentices attend accompanied by mentors from their respective TMHA branches, where they were welcomed by senior TMHA executives including president CEO Steve Takacs. Mr Takacs also presented the new apprentices with their tools of the trade, marking a significant investment directly to the inductees.

As ever, competition for spots in the Annual Apprentice Intake were extremely fierce, with the 15 apprentices chosen from a field of around 875 applicants.

The grassroots initiative fosters the development of in-demand skills that will provide the new forklift technician apprentices with valuable expertise, affording strong employment opportunities with plentiful room for growth within the company.

The 15 successful applicants will be distributed to TMHA branches across Australia, in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Albury, Launceston and Gladstone.

The four-year program now educates roughly 55 apprentices and has been successfully run by TMHA since 2007.  TMHA apprentices sit 10-15 per cent above the national apprentice retention rate, helped in part by the large scope for growth within the company.
