Beyond sharpening the skills of Gloucester’s newest recruits, this legislation ensures the city’s veteran drivers stay current while navigating busy routes like the A40, the A417, and the M5 corridor.
This ongoing training boosts road safety across Gloucestershire, improves driver welfare, and demands higher accountability from local operators, adding a professional edge to a vital career path in a city that serves as a key gateway between the Midlands and the South West.
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 Gloucester-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 Gloucester, Cheltenham, and the wider Gloucestershire area.
