IMPORTANT: Any driver attending the course must have their identity checked by either a photo card driving licence, Operator card (Tachograph Card) or a Driver Qualification Card (DQC).

You MUST bring your Driver Qualification Card to ensure you are eligible for Driver CPC periodic training.
For a driver to be uploaded to the FORS/TfL register and/or be accredited with the Driver CPC hours they must complete the entire course. Generally, the only reasons for not taking part in the cycle element are on medical grounds, or if during the cycle familiarisation session, the driver is risk assessed as not safe to ride a bike on public roads – in these instances it is acceptable for the drivers to walk the course meeting up with the cyclists at the exercise/discussion points and joining in with the discussion.
This course contains content relevant to drivers that hold a vocational category C1, C, CE. The course content is not fully aligned to drivers with a vocational category D1, D, DE. The holder of these categories, however, can attend and gain their 7hrs.
