Intensive LGV / HGV Training Courses

The course will at first take place at a HVG training centre, before you get taken out on the open road. The length of the training will be dependent the individual and how fast they can pick up the training, so it could be anywhere from one to four weeks depending on how well you pick it up.

You will be instructed on all aspects of using a LGV / HGV including driving skills, safety, basic mechanics, loading and securing loads and more, so you will quickly absorb the skills you are being shown during the duration of your course.

Before you start practical training with a LGV / HGV you will have to apply for a provisional licence which also requires a medical certificate,you can arrange it yourself but some training providers arrange these for you so ask them for more information.

If you are currently out of work you could be offered a back to work training scheme where your training costs are paid for you, ask at your local job center if this is available where you live.
