The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) is responsible for implementation in Great Britain (GB), and the Driver & Vehicle Agency (DVA) is responsible for implementation in Northern Ireland (NI). The competent authority for Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC) is the Secretary of State in GB and the Department of the Environment in NI.  \nWHAT IS DRIVER cPc?  \nThe Vehicle Drivers (certificates of Professional competence) Regulations came into effect in 2007 following the Driver cPc EU Directive in 2003. The regulations affect all professional LGV and PcV drivers. For new drivers it introduces a new initial qualification, the Driver cPc, which increases the amount of knowledge that drivers need before they can drive. When combined with licence acquisition tests, the initial qualification includes a four-hour theory test and a two-hour driving and practical test.  \nAll professional drivers, new and existing, will then have to undertake 35 hours of training every five years to ensure that their Driver cPc is current. This is known as periodic training. Only courses that have been approved and are being delivered by a training centre that has been approved by the Joint Approvals Unit for Periodic Training (JAUPT) will count towards the periodic training requirement.  \nPeriodic training is designed to confirm, and expand on, the existing knowledge and skills of each driver for example by enabling them to keep up-to-date with ever-changing legislation.  \nA GUIDE TO PERIODIc TRAINING   \nTHE JOINT APPROVALS UNIT FOR PERIODIc TRAINING (JAUPT)  \nThe Driving Standards Agency in GB and the Driver & Vehicle Agency in NI, as the appropriate government agencies, have set up an approvals body, the Joint Approvals Unit for Periodic Training (JAUPT), to approve and quality-assure training centres and courses for both PcV and LGV. The two Sector Skills councils, Skills for Logistics and GoSkills, manage the JAUPT.  \nJAUPT ensures that a consistent approach to training centres and courses is maintained across the LGV and PcV industries. Training centres that are approved in NI will also be approved to deliver periodic training in GB, and training centres approved in GB will also be approved to deliver periodic training in NI.  \nJAUPT:  \n• approves training centres  \n• approves course content  \n• issues a unique number for each training centre and each course  \n• manages the quality assurance process for training centres and courses to ensure that standards and approval criteria are upheld.  \ncONTENTS  \n1 What is periodic training?  \n1.1 What is periodic training?  \n1.2 How much training is required?  \n1.3 How is it delivered?  \n2 Who is affected by the requirements for periodic training?  \n2.1 Who does Driver cPc apply to?  \n2","cbCait7irSGVFZRw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCait7irSGVFZRw","pdf",1457435,46,"English","# What is periodic training?\n## What is periodic training?\n## How much training is required?\n## How is it delivered?\n# Who is affected by the requirements for periodic training?\n## Who does Driver cPc apply to?\n## Existing drivers (PcV)\n## Existing drivers (LGV)\n## New drivers\n## Drivers who hold both PcV and LGV licences\n## Drivers with LGV/PcV licences from other countries\n## Exemptions\n# How do training providers/employers get approved to deliver periodic training?\n## Requirements for becoming an approved training centre\n## Information required from providers/employers seeking to become an approved training centre\n# What is the process for course approval and re-approval?\n## The content of the course\n## Delivery of a course\n## Approval/re-approval of the course\n## Information required when submitting a course for approval\n## Information required when submitting a course for re-approval\n# How will centres and courses be quality-assured?\n## The quality of approved centres facilities and training\n## Quality assurance and audits\n## Amendment/revocation of approval\n## Informal appeals process\n## Formal appeals process\n# How will periodic training hours be monitored?\n## Recording of periodic training\n## The driver\n## The employer\n## Maintaining the Driver cPc recording & evidencing (R&E) database\n# Terms and conditions for centre and course approval\n# Annexes","[{\"question\":\"Who is this guide for and where does it apply?\",\"answer\":\"The guide supports employers and training providers in the LGV and PCV sectors delivering periodic training, including individual trainers.
