Bring approved identification such as your photocard driving licence, valid passport, digital tachograph card or Driver CPC card. The team will confirm the exact requirements before the course.

Drivers can use the official online Driver CPC service to check completed hours, attended courses and their current five-year training record.

Can businesses book exclusive CPC training?

Yes. Kent Training supports group bookings, employer-only sessions, onsite delivery and programmes planned around fleet training requirements.
