What is Driver CPC?
The Driver CPC is for LGV and PCV drivers who drive professionally throughout the UK. It has been developed as a requirement of the EU Directive 2003/59, which is designed to improve the knowledge and skills of professional LGV and PCV drivers throughout their working life. There are two parts to the legislation:
To simplify your process to gaining your Driver CPC we have come up with one generic course for LGV and the same for PCV. Basically you select which course (either LGV or PCV) and we have one course for you!
The 35 hours are classroom based theory. Complete the 35 hours satisfactorily and you gain your certificates, then you get your Driver Qualification Card sent to you direct from Driving Standards Agency.- The Initial Qualification must be achieved by new LGV and PCV drivers along with their
vocational licence to enable them to use their licence professionally.
- Periodic Training; 35 hours of training every 5 years must be attended by all professional drivers .
Existing Drivers who held a vocational licence prior to the 10th September 2008 (PCV) or the 10th September 2009 (LGV) are exempt from the Initial Qualification. This is known as "acquired rights".
All professional drivers (new and exisiting drivers) MUST complete a total of 35 hours Periodic Training every 5 years following their "acquired rights" or Initial Qualification to keep their Driver CPC valid.
EXISTING DRIVERS MUST COMPLETE THEIR PERIODIC TRAINING BY:
SEPTEMBER 2013 (PCV)
SEPTEMBER 2014 (LGV)
