Most forklift vendors would steer you to a training class as they are very involved in safety.
There exists a 'Material handling assoc' that promotes training with training classes given at various times.
The mfgs are very safety oriented as face it, heavy loads lifted up high and driven around are potential accidents looking to happen.
As a sales rep I was fully trained to calculate loads, reach balance etc for all sorts of applications.
It is not just simple math either but similar to weights and arms for aircraft 'weight and balance' calculations.
