Keep your Driver CPC clear and current

Driver CPC can feel confusing when you're trying to work out what counts towards an initial qualification and what keeps a Driver Qualification Card current. We make that clearer by explaining the difference first, then helping you choose the right route. For periodic training, we deliver seven-hour sessions that build towards the required 35 hours in each five-year period. We cover subjects such as vehicle checks, tachographs, drivers' hours, the Working Time Directive, defensive driving, fuel-efficient driving and professional urban driving, so the time you spend on training stays useful for your role rather than feeling like a box to tick.

Plan modules around the way you work

Not every driver needs the same mix of topics or the same timing. We can help you plan Driver CPC modules around your record, job demands and the knowledge you need to refresh. That is useful for individual drivers trying to stay on top of qualification requirements and for employers arranging training across a workforce. Because we deliver JAUPT-accredited training, you can book with confidence that the hours are structured correctly while still keeping the content practical, relevant and linked to safer decisions on the road.

Frequently asked questions
