Services
Diamond Driver Training are able to offer a driver duty of care training and assessment course to companies where employees are required to tow but where no formal training on towing has been carried out. The course is ideally suited for those employees who already have the B+E entitlement under "grandfather rights" and have therefore not been required to take and pass the B+E test.
Driving at work is covered under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and requires you to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety of all employees while at work. You also have a responsibility to ensure that others are not put at risk by your work-related driving activities.
Diamond Driver Training are able to offer caravan towing lessons, caravan handling and caravan manoeuvring lessons and courses on our own private training area in Newark for those who have little or no towing experience and want to gain some confidence in handling and manoeuvring with their own vehicle and caravan.
Initial Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence) is required for all new drivers of C1 or above who wish to drive for a living, or where the vehicle use would be classed as "hire & reward".
Any current driver with C1 as "acquired rights" who is either considering looking for C1 7.5ton work to utilize their "grandfather entitlement" or are beginning the process of training for LGV Cat C (old class 2) will require 35 hours of Periodic CPC in order to drive commercially.This change now makes it easier for those with acquired rights to get their first DQC where time to complete 35 hours of periodic training may be limited or difficult.
