HGV Industry Refresher Training in Livingston

One to one training, built around you, for drivers returning to the industry or wanting more confidence behind the wheel.

Who is the refresher course for?

This course is for drivers returning to the industry after time away, and for anyone who wants to build their skills beyond what was needed to pass the test. It is invaluable if you have passed but still lack a bit of confidence, if you gained your licence on a drawbar and now need to move on to an artic, or if you are leaving the military and need to get used to the commercial side of driving.

Topics we can cover

  • Driving a modern, full-size articulated lorry
  • Driving unladen and fully laden at 44 tonnes
  • Advanced driving techniques
  • Coupling and uncoupling, including air suspension
  • Extra reversing practice, including in a commercial yard
  • Loading and load security, including curtains and straps
  • Vehicle checks and defect reporting
  • Drivers' hours and tachograph rules

This list isn't fixed, so you can add anything you would like to work on.

Built around you

Training is one to one, so we can focus on exactly what you need. A training day lasts 4.5 hours and you can book one day or several. You know best what you need, and we will build the course around it.
