To date more than 1,900 managers across the UK have achieved FORS Practitioner status by completing the ten FORS Practitioner workshops, and now possess a comprehensive grounding in all aspects of fleet management and operational best practice.

The FORS Practitioner workshops are; Developing Fleet Management Policy, Managing Work Related Road Risk, Managing Driver Fitness and Health, Managing Driver Training and Development, Collision Procedures and Analysis, Safe and Efficient  Fleet Management, Reducing Fuel Use and Minimising Environmental Impacts, Minimising Transport Fines and Charges, Measuring and Monitoring Road Fleet Performance and Managing Noise in Logistics.
