Fleet Forum
Building Fleet Capacity Since 2003
Fleet Forum is a non-profit membership association inspiring better, cleaner, safer and more effective transport around the world.
We believe that organisations must invest in professional fleet managers to drive improvements of their transport practices. That is why TRAINING in combination with IMPLEMENTATION is a key part of the activities we deliver.
Over the years, Fleet Forum has developed practical, management-focused training programmes that increase the knowledge and skills of professionals to make fleet operations more effective and cost efficient, to increase staff safety, and to reduce the environmental impact of fleet operations.
Funded through the support of USAID
Under a sector capacity building with USAID, Fleet Forum is able to provide fleet management trainings at a fraction of the cost to fleet managers around the world.
Fleet Forum has 2 core training programmes
These are broad, CILT-certified trainings consisting of live lessons and follow-up activities after the training.
We also offer 'Specialisations'
These are certificate-based, self-paced, online trainings on specific topics. You can combine them with the core trainings or take them separately.
