8th February 2010
Bishop’s Move, the largest family owned removal and storage company in the UK, has received confirmation from the Joints Approval Training Centre (JAUPT) that approval has been granted to Bishop's Move Head Office as an Approved Training Centre for Driver CPC Periodic Training.
This approval is effective for 5 years from 30/11/2009 until 20/11/2014 and the sites covered are: Chessington, Edinburgh, Exeter, Guildford and York.
The Driver CPC is for LGV and PCV drivers who drive professionally throughout the UK. It has been developed as a requirement of the EU Directive 2003/59, which is designed to improve the knowledge and skills of professional LGV and PCV drivers throughout their working life.
There are two parts to the legislation: The Initial Qualification that must be achieved by new LGV and PCV drivers along with their vocational licence to enable them to use their licence professionally. Also there is Periodic Training, which involves all professional drivers undertaking 35 hours of training every 5 years.
Alistair Bingle, Managing Director of Bishop’s Move commented “This once again underlines our total commitment to ensuring staff training is at the top of our agenda in 2010”.
“We believe the most important part of our company is the employees who produce the quality of service that provides us with high customer satisfaction”.
