Beyond sharpening the skills of Derby’s newest recruits, this legislation ensures the city’s veteran drivers stay current while navigating busy routes like the A38, the A52, and the M1 corridor.
This ongoing training boosts road safety across Derbyshire, improves driver welfare, and demands higher accountability from local operators, adding a professional edge to a vital career path in a city famous for its world-class transport and engineering heritage.
CPC courses are mandatory for nearly every driver holding a C1 licence in the region. There are two primary routes: the Initial CPC, which is integrated into your Derby-based HGV training, and Periodic CPC Training, required every five years to keep you compliant. This affects anyone driving HGVs for “hire and reward” throughout Derby, Chesterfield, and the wider East Midlands area.
