Transport Manager CPC Refresher Course

Our refresher programme ensures Transport Managers across the East of England remain compliant with the latest legislation, best practices, and enforcement trends. Suitable for managers in urban centres and rural locations alike—from Cambridge’s high-tech logistics to Ipswich and Colchester’s commercial hubs—the course is essential for maintaining qualification validity and preparing for regulatory scrutiny.
Ideal for new entrants, returning managers, and those facing Public Inquiries or audits.

Why a Refresher Course Matters

Ongoing knowledge renewal is mandated by the Traffic Commissioner every five years, designed to keep Transport Managers adept in licensing, drivers’ hours, vehicle maintenance and records. The region’s busy transport corridors and evolving enforcement demand that managers remain vigilant and informed. Complementary CPD activities such as workshops and webinars further fortify compliance.

Course content includes:

  • Licensing and compliance systems with regional specificity
  • Maintenance and vehicle safety oversight
  • Drivers’ hours legislation, tachograph rules, and working time regulation
  • Record keeping, audit processes, and OCRS awareness
