Forklift Licence Training Wollongong

Are you looking to up skill with a Forklift Licence in Wollongong? You are in good hands. Wollongong occupies a narrow strip within Illawara in Sydney’s south, bordered by the Royal National Park, Windang Bridge, Tasman Sea and the Illawarra escarpment. By industry, Wollongong is dominated by Health Care and Social Assistance, closely followed by Manufacturing, Education and Training. According to the Wollongong City Council, Wollongong enjoys a lengthy reputation as one of Australia’s pioneering industrial centres.

Traditionally, the manufacturing industry in Wollongong has been driven by steel and coal production. Even today, it maintains presence, with 9.7% or 7,999 people employed in the manufacturing sector in Wollongong in 2011. But with changing production schedules, and much of Australian manufacturing being pushed offshore, Wollongong has diversified to incorporate a greater presence in sectors such as education, wholesale and retail trade, transport, communications, finance and tourism. For anyone looking to complete their Forklift Licence, you can find many roles in Wollongong – from warehouse and trade logistics, to continued roles in the manufacturing and industrial sectors.
