Course Guide

Getting your HGV licence is one of the most rewarding career moves you can make — and we're here to make the journey straightforward. Our structured training programme takes you from your initial medical right through to your practical test, with expert instructors guiding you every step of the way. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to upgrade your licence category, we'll get you road-ready with the skills and confidence to match.

1. Medical

Your first step is picking up a D2 and D4 form from your local Post Office. The D2 is your application for a provisional lorry or bus licence — take your time filling this in carefully at home. The D4 is your medical examination report — don't fill this one in yourself. Instead, bring it along to your appointment with a DVLA-approved medical examiner, who will complete it on your behalf. Once your medical is passed and your forms are submitted, you're cleared to move on to the next stage of your training.
We can also assist in booking your medical appointment.

2. Theory

A solid understanding of the rules of the road is the foundation of safe, professional driving. Our theory preparation covers the HGV multiple-choice test and hazard perception, with study materials and mock tests to build your confidence. We know the material inside out, and we'll make sure you do too.

3. Practical

This is where it all comes together. Our practical training puts you in the cab with experienced, patient instructors who know what the examiners are looking for. From vehicle safety checks and manoeuvring to full road driving, you'll train on real routes in real conditions — so when test day comes, you're ready.
