What is Driver CPC?

Under EU Directive 2003/59 every driver that wishes to drive a vehicle with a gross weight exceeding 3½ tonnes is required to qualify for The Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence).

The purposes of this directive are:

- To improve road safety
- To enhance driver professionalism
- To improve driver productivity

What are the requirements?
All drivers must undertake 35 hours of training every 5 years.

For LGV drivers the deadline for completion of the first thirty-five hours is September 9th 2014

This is typically achieved through attendance at five daily courses

Qualification is by attendance only, there is no requirement to pass any exam at the end
