HGV Apprenticeships

Create a professional HGV Driver training program with our Apprenticeship! We offer support from our expert logistics consultants in a cost-effective way that will create HGV Drivers that work for your business.

With our training program, you can offer new and current employees a professional, 13-month driver training program to boost their careers and aid your succession planning!

If you are an Apprenticeship Levy paying employer, then all of the training is completely free! If you don’t pay the Apprenticeship Levy, then the training can still be free if candidates are under 19 years old. If they are 19 or over then you will still only pay 5% of the costs, which means you will receive a 95% subsidy. You only pay £400 towards the training costs for 1 employee to gain their HGV licence!

There are no catches or hidden costs, just good quality training in skills and qualifications you need for your workforce.

SP Training

How does this work for your employees?

Employees will gain their licence in the first few months locally after their theory test – the only difference is that they will continue on a funded program delivered by our expert logistics Tutors at SP Training. This includes:

  • Interactive online learning modules (carried out at suitable times for the business)
  • 5 scheduled Driver CPC workshops during the remainder of the program
  • The 5 workshops can be JAUPT uploaded (for a small fee per person), granting 10 years of Driver CPC!
  • Consolidated by a driving assessment from Skills for Logistics for highly competent and professional drivers!

All the costs of the theory, practical Driver CPC workshops and final assessment are covered by the Apprenticeship Levy funding.

Do you already have an internal driver training function? No problem! Your internal trainers can continue to deliver the practical element as usual and we will pay you an agreed upon set amount from the funding to operate as a subcontractor. If you are looking to improve your internal driving function, we also offer expert driver trainer courses at discounted prices. Our apprenticeship clients can upskill their driver trainers and standardise training across depots.

Hear from our customers!

Being involved in this HGV Apprenticeship program has been one of highlights of my year, I am immensely proud of all our new drivers, but am also proud of the incredible support and training we have received from SP Training and their incredible team!”
