Employees train with no disruption to regular job
The 16-week flexible course qualifies employees to drive vehicles up to 32 or 44 tonnes. The beauty of the course is that staff members on the course can carry on with their regular job and only need to attend: 1 day to complete the theory, hazard, and case study tests at the local test centre, eight one-day online classroom sessions, and either 5 or 10 days to complete the driving lessons and test at TRS Training’s school in Knowsley, depending on whether the employee is getting their Cat C or Cat C+E licence.
Skills and knowledge boost in addition to licence acquisition
To participate in the course, employees must be aged 19+, have a car licence, and reside in one of the six local authorities mentioned above. Besides licence acquisition, the course covers a wide range of subjects to ensure drivers have all the necessary knowledge and skills. These include Theory Test Preparation, Driver’s Hours & Digital Tachographs, Health and Safety + MOD 2 case studies, Vulnerable Road Users, Carbon Emissions & Sustainability, Vehicle Loading & Security, Driver Health & Well-being, and Safe & Fuel-Efficient Driving.
Funding covers all aspects of HGV Skills Bootcamp including medicals and test fees
Liverpool City Region Combined Authority funds the course with a modest contribution from the employer.
