Don't miss the CPC deadline

All professional drivers operating a truck, bus, or coach – must complete 35 hours of periodic training every five years, in order to keep their Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC).

The deadline for the second five-year block of training for truck drivers is 9 September 2019.

If you miss the deadline, you cannot drive professionally until you've completed your training and you can be fined up to £1,000.

The five year expiry date is displayed on the front of the Driver Qualification Card under 4b. If you are unsure how many hours of Driver CPC training you have completed, you can check on the GOV.UK website.
