I was looking for a change in direction at work and after speaking with Richard from HGV Training Network I started my career change. Could not have done it without him, very supportive and explaining in details everything. Help and support throughout. It’s a steep learning curve when you start, but well worth it.Best wishes for the future and thank you again.

HGV Training Network are an amazing company. They helped and guided my son who has Aspergers through his training, step by step, at his pace, and made adaptions where they could to assist him with his motivation, because it has taken him 3 years. This is through no fault of his - Covid, DVLA issues and an influx of people wanting to be drivers. But they, as I had complete faith in him. He passed last week and is now fully qualified and looking for work. RICHARD ALLAN you are an absolute diamond, my son and I cannot thank you enough and would 100% recommend YOU and HGV training network as a brilliant company. They really do care about their customers and are extremely professional.

Gave the company a call just to get some advice, ended up speaking with a guy called Richard Allen (awesome guy btw). After listening to what he had to say I took some time to decide if it was for me, decided to go for it an it turned out to be one ot the best things I've done. I booked 20 hrs in class 1 gotta top quality trainer from rsm called rus who is really a great guy easy to get along with, professional and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. He just reminded me of hank from breaking bad 😆 🤣. Rang Richard back after I passed 😉 had another great phone call with him, he left me with a contact for potentially getting a new job aswell. Big 👍👍 to HGV Training Network.

The people working for HGV Training Network are a credit to their company. Predominantly, I dealt with Richard, however at the beginning I was also assisted by Chris and I spoke with Sarah a few times throughout my training as well. Whenever I called they were always on hand to help and, if not available, called back right away. Their material is set out in a way which makes it easy to follow and they always explained things fully and in a way which made me confident at every stage. Richard is a great guy and always had time for a quick chat and a laugh whenever we spoke. Due to a change in jobs I had to put the training on hold for a while but when we touched base around a year later he remembered everything about my family and personal circumstances - that’s what I call going the extra mile and someone who cares. A huge thanks to you all, I couldn’t have done it without you. Until next time. Scott

Helped me book and finish my class 2 training in under three months.HGVTN was the first out of many brokers I had called to explain the best course for me instead of push me to take the most expensive option so I went with them.Great team with efficient planning and close relationships with their training companies. Always know which student is calling when they pick up. Thanks Richard and the team

I decided I wanted to further my driving qualifications and experience to HGV level, and I approached the HGV Training Network. My principal contact has been Ben, and he has been fully supportive, and has ensured the availability of all the resources I required. With the organisation's encouragement, I succeeded in passing my theory test first time. I am not able to praise my experience to date highly enough.

I decided I wanted to change my career and become a HGV Driver. With the support of HGV TRAINING NETWORK, I was able to get my Category Class 2 License first time round. Chris gave me a better understanding and explained step by step what I needed to do. I was provided with resources for my CPC Module 2 theory test in which I passed first time. Also, Richard got me booked in pretty quickly for the test and kept me updated whenever there were any changes to the course. After I passed my test, Richard was fantastic. He advised me on the different areas of the industry I could work in and overall, I definitely felt supported by HGV NETWORK the whole way through.

Upon leaving my old place of work, I finally thought, it’s time to get my HGV class 2 licence. I contacted the HGV training network, and was put through to Richard.

I’ve just passed my class 2 test yesterday and I’d like to thank the whole HGV training network as they’ve been great all around. Would highly recommend.

Best place to go for your HGV license. They are professional, quick, honest and will help you all the way. The training material for theory test is extremely easy to use and understand and the professional driving instructor on their panel is one of the best instructors I ever had. Their aim is to get you qualified in first attempt and they make sure you get the right knowledge and experience to pass your test in first attempt.Thanks for everything Richard ( HGV Training Network ) and the Driving instructor Andy ( Daly Transport Training ).

I was in 2 minds whether to organise the whole setup independently or via hgv training network, merely the fact of the cost, however I'm so grateful I chose to go through hgv training network as from filling out paperwork and sending off, to booking all the appointments that reduce waiting times and informing when to call them back to let them know of steps completed to passing and receiving the congratulations phone call, couldn't be a better experience.I had condemned myself to 2 hours daily for learning all the online equipment as i had quit my previous job a few months prior so I was doing other work in between and with 4 months of doing so the online tests were a breeze through and then with the instructors training the cpc and reversing test was completed successfully to then only incorporate 3 minors of 12 on the practical testAll done within 6 months from the first phonecall to receiving the passA huge thanks to Richard and the team at hgvtn for the help in the booking process as I think that is a hard bit and to robinsons training for the great experience of becoming a professional class 2 driverYou get what you pay for in any circumstance so don't hesitate on the cost, it will soon pay for itselfThanks

Harvey

Couldn't recommend this company enough, everyone was brilliant and so helpful throughout every step of the process. Eric would answer my calls and answer my questions before signing up for the course, never pushing me to sign up and letting me make my own decision. It unfortunately took me much longer than expected to get my class 2 due to covid and lockdowns but Richard would always inform me as soon as he himself knew and was willing to sit and search through multiple test centres to get me the closest possible test date, and would always be willing to help me if I needed anything or had any questions throughout the whole process. Overall had an absolutely brilliant experience and would strongly recommend to everyone to do training with this company.

Aaron Valentine

14:37 08 Aug 21

HGV Training Network have been absolutely fantastic for me while completing my Class 2 and CPC. When I joined I was in the process of starting a new job as well as studying and then a pandemic hitting. In that time, HGV Training Network and Richard who I dealt with have shown nothing but patience when I have had to cancel or move dates through fault of my own. They were totally understandable and put me under no pressure what so ever which made me feel so comfortable. Richard has been like a mentor to me, he was always so understanding of my circumstances and I always felt if I had an issue or a question I could always get in touch with him at anytime without worry. When I had passed and completed my Class 2 and CPC it was so nice to be told by Richard that they are always there for me with any advice or issues throughout my career. It was also nice to just have a half an hour or so chat about life in general, it was like Richard had been my friend for years! I would recommend HGV Training Network to anyone looking to start a career, I will certainly be using them again for any future career development for myself. Thank you so much to HGV Training Network and Richard! I am now in the process of moving over to distribution side at the place I work to work on the lorries and I can’t wait!Aaron first time passer Class 2 and CPC

Eventually I struggled to find ALLMI lorry loader training for unlimited weight but once contacting HGV Training Network they were quickly able to identify and arrange excellent course for me. You'll pay premium for the service but in this case it was definitely worth it. Communication was always clear and I had a feeling of being looked after.

Richard was supportive and guided me through each step and ready to help answer any questions I had. Thank you HGV training network for helping me get my class 2 license.

Elliot McQuiston

11:32 10 Jun 21

Richard was an absolute pleasure to talk to. Very well informed and explained everything clearly. You of course pay more than you would if you done everything yourself but the knowledge they have was more than enough to justify the price, and they even offer advice to you after you've completed the course and in your first job. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get their license but don't know where to start.

12:16 07 Jun 21

I think it was value for money to get my HGV2. Richard was very helpful and the whole procedure from my therory and hazard perception test to the two days driving and final test was very slick. The online CPC was fun and informative. The whole procedure from start to finish was easy. I looked into doing all the steps by myself and would have strugled so the HGV training network has worked for me. Finished CPC course on the Saturday and have already been put forwad for work.

Hi everybody, I would recommend HGV Training Network to any old or new drivers, because they got me through my Theory Test and my Driving Test 1st time. The support and advice they gave through the whole of the training was outstanding 110%. Obviously we all got hit with COVID19 which delayed my test for 14 months. I asked if I could extend my Theory Modules this was done straight away, which for me was excellent as I had nothing else to do. I would like to extend my extreme gratitude to Richard and Chris for all their understanding and patience especially for putting up with ME over the last 14 months. ☺☺☺ (you know what I mean Richard) Well done lads you deserve a medal. Thank-you again and I will be doing my C+E with you lads in the very near future without a doubt. Sorry lads but it's not over yet!!!. (Ha-Ha)

Antonio Catapano

09:37 22 May 21

Great professional service.The all process was very easy and the team supported me every step of the way, despite all the delay the covid caused I was always up to date with my progress as the team kept updating me all the time.A special thanks to Richard and Chris for guiding me throughout the process and getting back to me every single time I had questions or concerns.I would recommend HGV Training Network to anyone interested in becoming a professional driver.
