Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers before you book.

Start with the most common questions about Driver CPC, company training, SAFED assessments and Operator Licence Awareness Training.

How many Driver CPC hours do I need?

Most professional drivers must complete 35 hours of periodic training within each five-year cycle. The correct course route depends on whether you need National or International Driver CPC.

Where is classroom training held?

Classroom courses are delivered in Droitwich, Worcestershire. Joining instructions confirm the exact venue, timings, parking and what to bring.

Can I book one seven-hour course?

Yes. You can book individual approved modules and build your hours across the five-year period.

Are my hours recorded?

Where a course is being delivered as approved Driver CPC periodic training, the relevant attendance record is submitted after successful completion.

What if my Driver Qualification Card has expired?

You may be eligible for the seven-hour Return to Driving route. Check the dedicated page or contact us before booking so we can confirm the appropriate option.

Do you train complete company groups?

Yes. Driver CPC and OLAT can be delivered at suitable company premises by arrangement. Tell us the location, number of attendees and preferred dates.

What does an on-site venue need?

A quiet, suitable room with enough seating and space for the group is normally required. We will confirm the full venue checklist before booking.

Does SAFED count as Driver CPC?

Not automatically. Driver assessment and coaching only count as Driver CPC where the specific course and delivery arrangement are approved for periodic training.

Who is OLAT designed for?

OLAT is useful for company directors, restricted operator licence holders, managers, supervisors and transport staff whose decisions affect compliance.

Can OLAT count towards Driver CPC?

Only where it is delivered through an appropriate approved Driver CPC course and the attendee holds the relevant vocational entitlement.

Do you offer Transport Manager CPC?

Yes, but it has a separate specialist website. Visit tmcpctraining.co.uk for classroom, live online and self-study routes.

Which areas do you cover?

Classroom training is based in Droitwich. Company delivery is available across Worcestershire and the West Midlands, with wider UK delivery considered for suitable group bookings.
