Driver CPC Card Extensions now expired

1 Apr 2021

Driver CPC cards that were due to expire from 1 February to 31 August 2020 were automatically extended by 7 months.

 

The extension gave drivers an extra 7 months to complete their 35 hours of periodic training.

All the extensions have now expired.  Any training drivers have already done counts for 5 years from the date they took the course. The training is not lost because they’ve passed their deadline.

 

The training will not count towards the 35 hours total if it was taken more than 5 years ago.
