LGV Instructor Training
The LGV Instructor training course provides candidates with the necessary skills to prepare drivers for the DVSA driving tests, to deliver Driver CPC training, and to carry out post-assessment/incident remedial training. It also prepares candidates for the independent National Register of LGV Instructors (NRI) examination. Courses are available at the RTITB Instructor Academy in Telford (UK), or as remote Instructor training for the theory element of the course.
By the end of the LGV Instructor course candidates will:
- Be able to plan and deliver LGV training
- Be able to recall and discuss the responsibilities of a LGV instructor
- Be able to explain the content and objectives of the LGV driving test
All candidates must successfully complete an independent examination to qualify as an LGV Instructor – an internationally recognised qualification. Successful candidates are eligible to register on the National Register of LGV Instructors (NRI).
The LGV Instructor course is suitable for candidates who:
- Have held (or still hold) a valid category C or C+E entitlement for 3 years or more
- Have significant experience as professional LGV drivers
- Have the confidence to present to small and large groups of their peers
