STEP BY STEP GUIDE

The practical road drive training is conduct by our qualified, experienced and registered NVDIR instructors. We are the only driving school in Northern Ireland to have approved NVDIR instructors and carry centre accreditation.

Unlike car instructors, there is no legislation that requires lorry instructors to hold any formal qualification. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that to ensure you receive the very best professional training you use a registered instructor.

Choosing a registered school not only ensures that you will receive quality training, but will also mean you are training at an establishment that carries correct insurance and complies with all current legislation.

Our instructors will tailor each individual student’s training to fully prepare for the DVA test.

If you wish to use your newly acquired licence to drive for hire or reward you will be required to complete Driver CPC. This will either be Periodic (35 hours classroom training) or Modules 2 (Case Study) & 4 (Show and Tell). We deliver these courses and can advise, assist and book the relevant option for you.

After completing Driver CPC, a Driver Qualification Card will be issued for 5 years.

We stock the relevant form needed to apply for your card, allowing you to be workplace ready.
