What is CPC training?
CPC (certificate of professional competence) training is regulated by the Driving Standards Agency and is required if you wish to begin a career in driving heavy vehicles (weighing over 3.5 tonnes) like a bus, coach, or lorry.
It includes a case study and practical demonstration test, and covers an extensive list of topics to prepare you for life on the road! You can become confident in road safety, driver compliance, and tachograph rules – to name a few.
Training for your new role is quick, too, taking as little as 35 hours spread across 5 days.
