Driver CPC Training & Course Syllabus

Passing and keeping your HGV licence has changed. The Driver CPC qualification is now required if you want to drive an HGV professionally. Driver CPC applies to categories C1, C and C+E. The Driver CPC course has 3 main objectives, these are:

We offer periodic Driver CPC Training (for existing HGV drivers).

Periodic Driver CPC Training

All drivers who have HGV entitlement and drive professionally must complete 35 hours formal training every 5 years.

This applies to category C1, C and C+E. This means you must undergo formal Driver CPC Training on an ongoing basis. There is no examination for periodic training, just attendance.

How you complete the 35 hours is entirely up to you, as long as you complete at least 7 hours at any one time (within 24 hours) and the course is Driver CPC approved. Most, if not all Driver CPC courses are 7 hours in duration. It would make sense to complete one day (7 hours) every year. That way you are spreading the cost and time.

Once you have completed your 35 hours you will be issued with a DCPC qualification card. You must be carrying your card at all times while driving professionally.

We are accredited to run Driver CPC Training on a 7 hour basis or as part of a Fork Lift Truck course, for example a 5 day Novice Counterbalance Fork Lift Truck course will award you 28 hours of periodic training.

We offer courses on the following equipment, all of which count towards your Driver CPC Training:
