DVSA reveals changes to Driver CPC

Following the consultation on ways to improve the Driver CPC, the DVSA is planning to swiftly implement the resultant changes.

The specific details of the changes haven’t been revealed yet but will include

allowing 12 out of the 35 hours to be e-learning, although DVSA hasn’t yet clarified how this will work with the current seven-hour modules system.
allowing training programmes that align with drivers’ work such as dangerous goods and transport of passengers.
allowing an exemption for drivers in some industries including agriculture, horticulture, forestry and farming.
continue to recognise Swiss Driver CPC.

The legislation to enable the changes to be made is expected to be in place by 22 July.
