Dangerous Goods Training Approved for Driver CPC‏

The DSA are pleased to announce that elements of dangerous goods training for LGV drivers can be counted as part of their Driver CPC periodic training.

Driver CPC is a new qualification which will affect all LGV drivers from 9 September 2009. All drivers will be required to complete 35 hours of periodic training related to their profession within consecutive five year periods.

The following elements of ADR training will count towards their periodic training:

  • Up to a maximum of 21 hours of the basic course
  • 7 hours of the core module refresher course

Please note: the specialist modules that are delivered outside of the basic course will not be accepted for periodic training, as it is considered the syllabi for these modules are too specialist and do not map readily across to the Driver CPC syllabus.

Training centres and courses will need to be approved in line with the regulations. Existing centre and course approval fees will be applied. For more information on how to register and get ADR courses approved so they count towards Driver CPC please visit www.drivercpc-periodictraining.org
