What is the driver CPC?

The driver CPC was introduced by European Legislation on the 10th September 2008 for D Class licence holders (coach & bus) and on the 10th September 2009 for C Class licence holders (LGV). Existing Drivers (with a few exceptions) now have to complete 35 hours periodic training in a 5 year period. The training must cover the minimum requirements of the legislation on subjects such as road safety; fuel economy; regulation; health & safety; service and logistics. It depends on the training companies interpretation of the regulations as to how they deliver the training.

Why are we different?We are committed to delivering excellence to our

clients which is why we deliver the IN suite of

courses. The training suite has been specially

designed to deliver 100% of the CPC legislative

requirements whilst allowing time to include other

best practice and mandatory training that drivers

need from time to time. The half day CPC core

module covers key aspects from all of the

objectives of the EU directive and can be delivered

annually as a refresher course along with one of the

half day technical modules if a company so wishes.

Up to two days of bespoke industry specific

training, normally taken outside of the 35 hours of

CPC periodic training, can be taken as part of the

syllabus without detriment to the minimum

requirements of the legislation. Companies can

also opt for their drivers to gain an Emergency First

Aid at Work qualification as part of the programme.

ATIV

When should drivers complete their training?

The first 35 hours of training should be completed before the 10th September 2014. Existing drivers will lose the right to drive if training is not completed by this date. Drivers must take blocks of training which are no less than 7 hours duration. We recommend spreading the burden of 5 days training over the five year period by completing one 7 hour course per year. The advantages of this are as follows:

xistence - Imagine reading the headlines on the front cover

knowing that one of your drivers was involved. What if you could

do something to try and prevent it. The story on the front cover

actually happened; the victims were family members of one of

the directors of . This inspired the development of the unique

training programme, which aims to create the safest drivers on the road

and reduce the number of headlines like this.

INATIV

reedom - New corporate manslaughter rules mean that not only

drivers face imprisonment for causing death on the road, but so

do the directors of companies. Other offences also carry prison

terms. We ensure that our trainees are aware of the law and the

penalties for breaching it. We do this not just once in the five year period,

but every year - so that drivers who have taken our courses are inspired not

to cut corners.

ncome - Drivers who are prosecuted for even minor offences find

it difficult to gain employment. Drivers who are convicted of

serious offences find it almost impossible to find work. The aim

of our CPC Driver Training Programme is to minimise the

possibility of drivers being caught out through lack of knowledge or

ignorance of the rules. Our training modules are unique, designed

specifically to ensure your drivers are amongst the safest, most

professional and efficient on the road.

ivelihood - Companies value their drivers. Companies value

their business. European legislation now insists that drivers

complete 35 hours of periodic training in a five year period on

subjects such as safety, fuel economy, regulation, health & safety,

service and logistics. These subjects, if taught in the correct way can

improve the way your company operates. courses are designed

with the employer in mind, ensuring that bespoke company information

can be taught to your drivers whilst they are undergoing their regulatory

training.

INATIV

nlightened - We treat drivers as professionals, experts in their

fields. We strive to ensure that our training courses are aimed

at the right level so that they are both interesting to attend and

extremely informative. We aim to build on existing knowledge

and build real life experiences into our courses ensuring that

attendees feel that they have learned useful skills which can be

immediately applied to their everyday jobs.

alued - Our training does not just concentrate on the legal

aspects of being a driver, nor does it just address the CPC

legislation. The training programme is a suite of

complimentary courses that teach the driver to be more

professional, fuel efficient and an ambassador for your

company.

nnocuous - Our training is designed to ensure that the driver

takes into consideration all the risks involved in driving an LGV

and deals with them accordingly. This ensures that he or she

remains out of harms way and doesn’t cause harm to others.

egal - Our programme ensures that the drivers who train with

us are fully versed in all aspects of the law and are prepared

and equipped to fully uphold it during their normal working

life.

Our package of training modules is designed to give maximum flexibility to the company whilst adding value. Drivers cover all of the topics in the legislation and carefully selected additional modules during their 35 hours of periodic training. This reduces company costs and decreases driver downtime. Great care has been taken to create an enjoyable programme for candidates to ensure that the maximum benefit is gained from the learning experience.

We generally recommend that drivers spread their periodic training over the five year period rather than trying to complete it in one block session. We take a consultative approach to determining the current needs of your company when helping you structure your training and are always willing to talk to clients about bespoke training needs which can be delivered as part of the syllabus.

You hear it on the news all the time… You kind of get used to it… You think, ‘I can’t imagine what that must be like for the

family…’ Then you get on with your life.

A young family of four were killed on the A34 near Oxford when they were hit from behind by a lorry, crushing them beneath a car transporter. A police spokesman said they would have died instantly.

The lorry driver has been arrested, having admitted that he fell asleep at the wheel.

Memories….

All their relatives have now are memories.

Memories of a beautiful family, wiped out before they could even say goodbye. 30 tonnes takes a great deal of stopping at 40 miles per hour.

The memories of the 4 hour struggle to free the victims bodies will live on in the minds of the rescue team forever.

The driver will have to live with the memory that he caused the deaths of four people. For his family, there will be the hurt and pain of the prison sentence.

Maybe, if CPC training had been introduced earlier it could possibly have prevented something like this happening.

How would something like this affect you and your family?
