Driver CPC training

What is Driver CPC training?

Most drivers who wish to use their LGV or PCV vocational driving licence professionally are required by law to hold a valid Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence) qualification. Both the driver and the operator they work for are risk being fined or receiving other penalties if they don’t hold the qualification when driving commercial vehicles.

Who should attend our Driver CPC Training?

Holders of vocational lorry (category C1, C1E, C and CE) and/or bus (category D1, D1E, D and DE) licences are required by the regulations to complete 35 hours of periodic training every 5 years.

Our Driver CPC courses cover a wide range of subjects enabling drivers to improve or add to their existing knowledge and skills, develop professionally and remain safe and legally compliant.  

To keep drivers properly up-to-date, we recommend they complete 1 day (7 hours) of training per year so that drivers may be regularly kept up to date.

What does the Driver CPC Training include?

We deliver the training using a mixture of presentations, videos, discussion and breakout sessions.

We additionally have a 7-hour Vulnerable Road Users module that can be delivered to both PCV and LGV drivers. 

All those attending will be provided with a Certificate of Attendance on completion.
