    What is the stability triangle again?
    Nomsa · AI tutor
    It's the area between the two front wheels and the middle of the back axle. Keep the load's centre of gravity inside it and the forklift won't tip (video at 2:20).

    Private help from the course, any time

    Nomsa answers from the course material, day or night, and gives the video timestamp to watch again.

    I saw a small oil drip under my forklift. Can I still drive it?
    Nomsa · AI tutor
    No. Any fluid leak, however small, means the forklift is tagged out of service. Tag it and report it to your supervisor (video at 3:10).
  5. 05 / 06

    A real tutor steps in

    When the course doesn't clearly answer it, or it's about safety, deadlines or certificates, Nomsa hands the chat to a tutor with a suggested reply.

    My supervisor says we can skip the checklist on night shift. Is that ok?
    Nomsa · AI tutor
    Good question. I've asked your tutor to answer you here soon.
    Thandi · Tutor
    Please don't skip it: the checklist is needed before every shift. I'll speak to your supervisor today.

    Hand in work from WhatsApp

The web app

Tutors and companies run every class from one place

    Invite learners and co-teachers
    Add learners straight away or send invitations, share the class code, and teach together with other tutors.
  • Groups and classes, linking each classroom to its WhatsApp group
    One WhatsApp group per class
    Create the class group from SmartClass. It posts the week board and sends each learner a private welcome with their course link.
  • Marking an assignment, with each learner's work and a mark and feedback form
    Mark work and give feedback
    Work handed in on the web and on WhatsApp arrives in one list. Return a mark and feedback, and the learner sees it straight away.

    See every learner's progress
    The marks grid shows what's handed in, late or missing, with each learner's average. Download it as a spreadsheet.
