New Change’s to drivers CPC given the Green Light On Tuesday 29th October the government, made changes to the driver’s certificate of professional competence (DCPC) training requirements.

Other changes include the decoupling of e-learning from trainer-led courses and moves to encourage more flexibility in end of module assessments, as well as the introduction of an accelerated pathway for returning drivers.

We received an update from DVSA on the reforms for the Driver CPC today. The email said; " The reforms include: * introducing a National Driver CPC that will cover driving a lorry, bus or coach in the UK * allowing training courses to be done in blocks of 3.5 hours rather than the current 7 hours to allow greater flexibility * decoupling e-learning from trainer led courses * speeding up the process for drivers whose Driver CPC has run out to return to driving a lorry of bus coach in the UK. This work is still ongoing; these changes aim to be introduced in late 2024 or early 2025 Introducing a periodic test The results from the 2023 consultation on introduction of a test were mixed. We will continue to keep under review the possibility of the introduction of a test." So, not much more than we knew already. But perhaps this might mean we're moving forward on the changes slowly.
