FAQs

Find answers to your most common questions about our driving courses.

How long are courses?

Driver CPC courses: Each Driver CPC course is 7 hours long. If preferred, this can be split into two 3.5-hour sessions, but both sessions must be completed within consecutive days for the International Driver CPC. For National CPC (ideal for drivers only operating in the UK) these split sessions can be done with more flexibility and interchangeability to meeting your 35 hours every 5 years. For more information view our Driver CPC page.

Refresher courses:
Refresher sessions are 4 hours each and can be booked as needed. You can choose morning (8:00–12:00) or afternoon (12:30–4:30) slots.

Licence Acquisition Courses (LGV / PCV):
LGV courses usually take between 6-10 days, depending on the category and your previous experience. For minibus training it can take between 1-4 days depending on the training and individual.

Driving Assessments:
Minibus driver assessments typically take around 1 hour and 15 minutes. For LGV (lorry) drivers, assessments usually take a full day, especially when carried out on-site and designed to cover all relevant competencies.

What is the cost of training?

Course prices vary depending on the licence category and course type. All fees include VAT and test costs where applicable. For an up to date quote, please contact us directly for a tailored price.

Do I need a medical to start training?

Yes. If you’re applying for a new LGV or PCV licence, you’ll need to complete a driver medical using the D4 form, filled out by your doctor. You’ll also need to submit a D2 form to apply for your provisional licence. We’re happy to guide you through this process if needed.

How does the Driver CPC work?

If you drive professionally, you’ll need to complete 35 hours of Driver CPC periodic training every 5 years to maintain your qualification. We recommend spacing this out by attending one 7-hour course per year. This makes it easier to manage costs and time, rather than leaving it all until just before your CPC card expires. Please note: You cannot repeat the same CPC subjects within a 5-year period.

You can check your completed CPC hours here:

What qualifications do your trainers have?

All training is led by Michael, our lead instructor, who is RTITB-accredited and DVSA-registered. He brings decades of industry experience, both on the road and as a professional trainer since 2013.

What do I need to bring with me on training days?

Before starting your course, please email us a copy of both sides of your driving licence. On the day of training, bring one of the following forms of ID:

- Your
photocard driving licence

- Your driver card

- Or your Driver CPC card

Only these forms of ID can be accepted. If you’re unsure, contact us - we’re happy to advise.

Can I train with no previous experience?

Yes, we welcome both new drivers and experienced drivers looking to refresh or upgrade their licences.

Where does the training take place?

Training can be delivered at our Sussex facility, located at:
Ellen Street, Portslade, BN41 1DW

Or at your premises and using your own vehicle if meets legal standards.

Practical driving sessions use local routes to give you real world experience similar to what you’ll face in your test and future work.
