How can Driver CPC Training be delivered?

STC can provide a range of approved courses. The training can be completed in flexible 7 hour blocks. Only courses approved by the Joint Approvals Unit for Periodic Training (JAUPT) count towards the ‘Periodic Training’ that is required by drivers to maintain their Driver CPC Driver Qualification Card. The seven hours excludes any breaks; only direct training and contact time (time with a trainer) count towards the Periodic Training requirement.

Scheduled Courses

We have a programme of dates for each 1 day course throughout the year with Monday-Friday and Saturday options that you can book from a single driver onto, or up to a full course if you have larger numbers. You can book just 1 day at a time or any number of days up to the full 5 days for each driver, spread over a period of time to suit you, or as a Five day block.

Five Day Block (Monday – Friday)

If you have drivers within ten years of retirement or drivers who are likely to remain with you for a number of years, this may be the most cost effective option for you, because drivers who complete their training early in the first five year periodic training period are not required to train again until towards the end of the second five year period i.e. 10 September 2018 for PCV and 10 September 2019 for LGV drivers. STC offer discounts for drivers booked on a five day block course.

Venues for Periodic Training

We have our own fully equipped training centre in North London and have access to a number of other venues around the UK where periodic training can be provided. If you have access to your own training rooms that meet the JAUPT’s Driver CPC requirements, it may be possible to provide some of the courses on your site. Our scheduled courses are currently all provided from our Training Centre in North London.

Bespoke/In-cab Courses

If there are other programmes of training that are not listed on this website or in-cab training that you would like us to provide as part of your Driver CPC programme, it may be possible for us to seek approval so that these can qualify as Periodic Training for your drivers (please contact us for details). There is an additional cost and courses do have to meet certain criteria, but we are happy to advise you if this option is of interest.
