Are you an aspiring transport manager?
If the answer is yes, then you will need a Transport Manager CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence); a level 3 qualification which will develop your road haulage transport management skills. It is a requirement for holding an O-licence, operating HGVs in Great Britain, and it doesn’t expire, meaning that you will be considered professionally competent for life. You will learn everything necessary for you to be an efficient transport manager, such as overseeing transport operations, managing staff members and ensuring the legal requirements for road haulage are met.
What is the CPC course for Transport Managers?
The Transport Manager CPC is a Level 3 qualification which consists of two exams: a multiple-choice exam and a case study. During your course with us here at CTS Training and Consultancy you will first learn all the modules giving you sound knowledge to undertake the first of the two exams. The second part of the course will focus on the long answer case study questions that form the second exam.
