As I am sure the majority of Drivers know, the Driver CPC has changed and we now have two different CPC's. We have the existing INTERNATIONAL CPC which hasn't changed, but we now have the new NATIONAL CPC as well - so you get to choose which one you want/need.
The main change is that the NATIONAL CPC can now be completed by attending 3.5 hour courses - but still needing to complete 35 hours in total over 5 years. You can also complete up to 12 hours of eLearning towards this (don't confuse eLearning with Remote/Online courses. eLearning doesn't have a trainer present.
At the moment we are sticking to the INTERNATIONAL courses, so no change.
HOWEVER - we do now offer the new RETURN TO DRIVING CPC Course. This is a single 7 hour course aimed at drivers with an expired CPC wanting to return to driving. If anyone has a CPC that expired more than 60 days but less than 2 years ago - they can now get back to driving in a single day!
This new RETURN TO DRIVING course covers Drivers Hours & Tachographs, Vehicle Checks, Load Safety and Vulnerable Road Users. Once completed a 12 month National CPC card will be issued allowing someone with an expired CPC to get back to driving quicker and cheaper.
The course can also be attended by anyone with an existing CPC and simply counts as a 7hr International course.
So - we have the new RETURN TO DRIVING COURSE online/remote at the same price as any other CPC course which is £40.00 which can be booked here https:www.thetrainingservice.co.uk/courses.php
