Frequently Asked Questions
Penalties for driving professionally without Driver CPC. You must carry your Driver CPC card while driving a truck or bus professionally. If you are stopped by an RSA transport officer or An Garda Síochána and you do not have your Driver CPC card with you, penalties will apply.
To maintain your driver CPC qualification, every five years you must:
attend one unique driver CPC training module per year with an RSA-approved CPC training organisation (35 hours over five years)
attend a total of 42 hours of driver CPC training modules if you hold bus and truck driver CPC and wish to maintain both. This consists of six training modules which must be completed over a five year cycle.
In each case, training must last for one day (a minimum of seven hours per day) and is compulsory. When booking your training module, make sure your trainer and training centre are approved. Unapproved training will not count towards your driver CPC.
If you do not complete the required training every year you will not receive a new Driver CPC card after five years.
You can check how many hours of training you have done in the current 5-year cycle in your MyCPC portal account.
