DVSA has worked with stakeholders including CPT, ASOT, Road skills, HSE, BHS and others to provide Driver CPC core content. Trainers can incorporate these free-of-charge resources into their periodic training courses.

The resources include links to relevant websites, videos, presentations and e-learning, which can be incorporated in training courses to increase their relevance and improve driver engagement. 

You should note that your courses remain subject to the usual approval process.
