Owner of FMS (Forklift and Mechanical Services) Training Services in Brisbane, Jocelyn Doherty (pictured) is proving you don’t have to be rough around the edges to make it to the top of a traditionally male dominated industry. Looking every bit the ‘girlie’ girl, Jocelyn has held a forklift license for a number of years and helps others to develop the knowledge and the skills required to work in the forklift industry.

A former school teacher, Jocelyn and her team at FMS Training Services have provided forklift driver training and licensing services for the Australian Defense Force, Woolworths and most of the major job networks in Queensland.

Jocelyn was a small business mentor before deciding to launch FMS as a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) in 2007. She is responsible for several training programs and her main focus at FMS is to help others develop skills and awareness about the forklift industry.

With so many workers being made redundant and recent ABS figures showing unemployment rates reaching a high of 4.9 percent, Jocelyn says now is the perfect time for Australians to gain or improve their qualifications.

“As the credit crisis surges on it’s important for the unemployed and students to carefully consider alternative career paths,” said Jocelyn. “We provide beginners courses at a competitive price for those who cannot get log book experience, mainly for the unemployed or those new to the industry.”

Located in Lawnton, Queensland, FMS Training Services also offer two day experienced operator courses and refresher courses for those with a licence who wish to update their skills.

FMS are the only forklift training providers who have the facility to provide a ‘simulated work environment’ where students complete a log book with a Workplace Health and Safety approved Forklift Trainer and Assessor, instead of a warehouse supervisor.

FMS deliver services which are often considered essential to help people get back into employment and they are heavily reducing service fees for some of their courses to make it easier for people who may be struggling.

Jocelyn said, “Right now I place significant importance in helping people to ‘skill up’ during this financial crisis and this is our way of contributing.”
