Driver CPC training
By September 2014 all drivers of vehicles over 3.5
tonnes will need to have completed 35 hours of training.
This will need to be repeated every five years to maintain a
vocational licence.
The Driver CPC has been developed as a requirement of the EU
Directive 2003/59, which is designed to improve the knowledge and
skills of professional drivers throughout their working lives.
There are two parts to the legislation:
- The Initial Qualification that must be achieved by new LGV and
PCV drivers along with their vocational licence to enable them to
use their licence professionally.
- Periodic Training, which involves all professional drivers
undertaking 35 hours of training every five years.
