Driver CPC Guide

Understand where theory, case studies and practical tests fit if you want to drive a lorry, bus or coach professionally.

The qualification pathway

Professional HGV and Bus/Coach drivers may need Driver CPC in addition to the relevant driving licence. The qualification route includes theory and practical elements. Part 1 covers multiple choice and hazard perception; Part 2 is the case-studies test for professional drivers; later practical parts test driving ability and professional competence.
