Why take the Course?
It’s crucial for drivers to undergo driving training refreshers. Even if you drive regularly, your skills can dull over time. Booking a refresher course can help you assess your abilities and identify areas for improvement.
Who should take the Course?
The Driver Refresher Course is popular among HGV or LGV drivers as it allows them to update their driving skills. Typically, the HGV refresher course should be completed every 3-5 years, depending on the level of risk associated with the job. However, many companies provide more frequent refresher training, so it’s important to check your organisation’s policy.
It’s recommended to take the driving refresher course if you switch to a new vehicle or if you’re unsure about its features, controls, and operation. Additionally, if you’ve been away from work for an extended period it’s a good idea to refresh your training to familiarise yourself with any changes that may have occurred during your absence.
