CPC Training Stoke On Trent

The cost of driver training depends on numerous factors, like location, duration, and the provider of the course. You’ll often find that the initial qualification tends to be more expensive than the CPC periodic training due to its broader curriculum and resource costs.

We also offer a flexible finance scheme through Snap Finance, which offers low deposits and is personalised to your needs, so you can train now and pay later.

The CPC driver certificate is a legal requirement for anyone who wishes to drive a heavy goods vehicle professionally.

Some vehicles, such as ambulances, fire engines, or other emergency vehicles, don’t require drivers to have CPC training, as they have different training needs and do not come under commercial driving.

Additionally, those with grandfather rights are usually exempt from partaking in the initial CPC qualification, but will still need to undergo periodic training every five years.

If you’re approaching professional driving for the first time, you’ll need to take your CPC course as part of your overall driver training (including practical and theory training). This can take several weeks or months, depending on your availability and skill level.

However, if you’re concerned about periodic CPC training, you’ll only need to complete 35 hours of training every five years, which you can break down to suit your schedule.

Yes, it is possible to fail your CPC training. If you don’t pass just one of your initial CPC modules, you’ll fail the entire course and will need to rebook your exams.

However, if we’re referring to periodic CPC training, failing wouldn’t be an option because it’s based on attendance and participation. As long as you show up to your CPC refresher classes, you’ll pass.

How long it takes depends on the type of CPC training you need.

Periodic CPC training takes a blanket 35 hours over a 5-day period.

However, interim CPC training will take slightly longer and is completed as part of your theory and practical driver training so will be threaded through your training.

For this reason, it could take anywhere from a fortnight to a few months and will differ between learners.
