Large goods vehicle driver jobs

Training plays a significant role in the progression of careers in the transport business, just as it does in any other field. It is more probable that you will be able to boost your earning potential if you participate in more training and acquire additional talents.

Here at Drive Personnel, our goal is to provide our drivers with support and assistance so that they may realize their full potential as drivers. Drive Personnel can assist with additional specialist driver training such as Moffett and HIAB, which can lead to better career opportunities, more choice in job role, and ultimately, greater earning potential. In addition to providing access to the training that is required to obtain the Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence), Drive Personnel can also provide access to the training that is required to obtain the Driver CPC.

What you receive in exchange for the money you spend

If you consider the price of HGV training and licenses in comparison to the price of a university degree that will lead to a job that is unclear, driving an HGV seems to be a more worthwhile investment as a vocation. Although learners are allowed a year to finish the basic training program, the training for an HGV license might take as little as a few days to complete. Your training as a heavy goods vehicle (HGV) driver will cover the following, despite the fact that the actual training expenses may vary depending on the kind of license you obtain:

Training in a classroom setting

Instruction in the real world

Student support

Job aid

Students who want to become heavy-vehicle drivers start studying about commercial driving standards as soon as they begin their training program. The students' education is focused on providing them with the fundamental knowledge required to become an HGV driver with a valid license. This means that trainees do not pay to acquire knowledge that is not relevant; each and every module and class gives drivers a core toolbox that they can use to get their logistics career off the ground.

To give you an idea of how much it will cost you to learn how to drive an HGV or LGV, the normal cost of a driver training course for HGVs and LGVs that is five days long is somewhere in the neighborhood of £1,000. (depending on location and training provider).

Price Paid for Testing

The fees associated with taking the exams that are part of HGV driver training are in addition to the overall cost of your HGV training. Drive Personnel, on the other hand, may organize these examinations on your behalf to ensure that there are no unanticipated costs. The following are the tests that must be passed in order to become an HGV driver:

The cost of the Theory Test Part 1 is £26.

The cost of the Theory Test Part 2 is £11.

CPC Certification – £23

The Driving Ability Test costs £115 on weekdays and £141 on weekends (weekends)

The practical exam costs £55. (weekdays) £63 (weekends)

Instructional Supplements

Drive Personnel also works with experienced heavy vehicle drivers (HGV drivers) who are interested in improving their driving abilities. It is possible for drivers to acquire the skills necessary to transport hazardous commodities such as caustic, poisonous, or explosive substances by completing additional training and obtaining a certificate known as an ADR (Advisory Dangerous Goods by Road). This certificate, in conjunction with other advanced HGV licenses, may provide drivers with the opportunity to progress their careers and significantly increase their earning potential.
