Choose the route that matches the job

Flexible for employers
We can support workforce development through centre-based courses or suitable on-site training.
Compare licence, CPC and forklift pathways
If you're in Newcastle upon Tyne, it helps to separate training into three clear routes before choosing what to do next. We provide Class 1 training for people moving into articulated HGV work, Driver CPC courses for professional qualification needs, and forklift truck training for operators and employers developing workplace equipment skills. Each route serves a different goal. One helps you work towards a larger licence, one keeps professional knowledge current, and one builds safe truck handling in a workplace setting. We make those distinctions clear so you do not lose time following the wrong path or mixing up licence training with compliance or equipment training.
Use centre or site delivery where it fits best
For Newcastle upon Tyne learners aiming for HGV work, practical vehicle tuition takes place through our dedicated training centre, where we can focus on road skills, manoeuvres and test preparation. Forklift and some employer-focused training can also be arranged on-site where that suits the workplace better. This gives individuals a clear route into training and gives employers more flexibility when they need practical development for drivers, warehouse staff or both. We can talk through your goal first and help you narrow the options down to the route that makes the most sense.
