DVSA - Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC): what you told us
Published: 03/07/2020
Yesterday (30 June) we published our response to a consultation on improvements to the Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC).
Following your views we are making changes, which include:
- allowing 12 out of the 35 hours to be e-learning
- 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
Thank you for taking part in the consultation and letting us know what you think about possible changes to Driver CPC.
Read our response and what you told us about Driver CPC
What happens next?
Following publication of the response we will be amending the law to allow these changes to come in to force on 22 July 2020.
We will update the guidance on GOV.UK and will let you know you once this work is completed and the changes to driver CPC are implemented.
