WHAT IS DRIVER CPC TRAINING?

We often get asked, what is driver CPC?

The answer is simple. It’s periodic training for all drivers of lorries, buses or coaches to ensure you’re up-to-date with knowledge and fully compliant with safety standards.

All commercial HGV drivers are required by law to undergo 35 hours of driver CPC training every five years to receive a driver certificate of professional competence (CPC) card or ‘driver qualification card’ (DQC).

Your driver CPC card shows you’ve completed training underpinned by standards established by the European Union that ensure all professional drivers are both competent and proficient.

DRIVER CPC TRAINING COURSES WE DELIVER

DRIVER CPC TRAINING COURSES WE DELIVER

ONLINE CPC COURSE MODULES INCLUDE:

Different courses cover different parts of the Driver CPC syllabus. We run driver CPC training in TruckSmart, Staying Legal, Safe Urban Driving or Lo-City Driving.

The Safe Urban Driving and Lo-City Driving programmes also complement the FORS accreditation silver and gold awards. So if a driver undergoes FORS silver or FORS gold accreditation, their hours can be counted as part of their driver CPC training.

TruckSmart training focuses on the skills needed to achieve full compliance with regulations and keep vehicles safe and roadworthy at all times.

The Staying Legal course helps drivers better understand the regulatory framework and provides best practice guidance to help ensure they comply with important rules and regulations.

Safe Urban Driving is training for all commercial drivers of HGVs using such vehicles in the urban environment and where there are high volumes of vulnerable road-users like cyclists and pedestrians.

All three awards are driver CPC training accredited and offer the very best standards and practice in road transport management that put you one step ahead of the competition.

DRIVER CPC TRAINING COURSE FAQS

WHY DO I NEED DRIVER CPC CERTIFICATION?

Government restrictions require all drivers holding a category C or category D licence to have CPC certification in order to drive legally. In addition, all operators of HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicles) and PCV (Passenger Carrying Vehicles) must also be fully certified and keep their licence up to date. This includes haulage, construction, and transport businesses.

If you are unsure whether you or your business are exempt from holding a Driver CPC certification then feel free to call us or you can consult a transport lawyer.

If you’re caught driving without CPC or your CPC certification expired before 1 March 2020 you can be fined up to £1,000. You’ll be expected to finish your driver CPC training before being allowed to drive professionally once more.

If your driver CPC is current but you are caught driving professionally without your CPC card you can receive a £50 fixed penalty fine.

WHAT IS A DRIVER CPC CARD?

Driver CPC certification was first introduced in 2009 across Europe with the objective of making roads safer and improving the quality of driving, both domestically and internationally.

It is now a legal requirement to hold a Driver CPC certification and to carry your Driver CPC card with you at all times when driving LGV/HGV or PCV/PSV professionally for a living.

The legislation requires every driver to complete 35 hours of Driver CPC training in every 5-year period to ensure their driving skills, awareness and road safety knowledge remain current.

Failure to meet the Driver CPC requirements whilst driving large vehicles could result in a £1,000 fine for driving illegally. Please note that this could also invalidate your insurance. The fine for not carrying your Driver CPC card is a £50 fixed penalty.

WHAT DOES THE DRIVER CPC SAFE URBAN DRIVING COURSE INCLUDE?

Safe Urban Driving is training for all commercial drivers of HGVs using such vehicles in the urban environment and where there are high volumes of vulnerable road-users like cyclists and pedestrians.

All three awards are driver CPC training accredited and offer the very best standards and practice in road transport management that put you one step ahead of the competition.

WHAT IS DOES THE DRIVER CPC TRUCK SMART COURSE INCLUDE?
TruckSmart training focuses on the skills needed to achieve full compliance with regulations and keep vehicles safe and roadworthy at all times.
WHAT DOES THE DRIVER CPC STAYING LEGAL COURSE INCLUDE?
