Following considerable support from the UK British Industrial Truck Association (BITA) and in consultation with the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), Trade Union Congress (TUC), Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and others involved in the professional training of operators and instructors of industrial trucks, the Association of Industrial Truck Trainers (AITT) introduced an accreditation scheme in 1991 driven by practical training specialists and aimed at improving standards of training and safety in the operation of industrial trucks.

AITT is an accredited body approved and listed by the Health & Safety Commission (HSC) in the Approved Code of Practice (ACoP) for Fork Truck Operator Training. (see L117) Practical trainers specialising everyday in the industrial truck training industry set AITT standards. The standards are comprehensive and meet national standards.

AITT promotes the highest standard of training and operation in industry targeted by the ACoP (L117). AITT specialises in all types of industrial truck and mobile materials handling equipment. AITT is dedicated to help members and industry maximise the safe operation of workplace transport.
