Driver and Training Services

One of UKIFDA’s primary roles is to promote self-regulation within our industry by enhancing standards and adopting best practices.

UKIFDA is a member of the National Logistics Training Consortium and operates as an approved training centre dedicated to raising industry standards through comprehensive training services.

We offer a range of training options to ensure members meet regulatory requirements, including CPC and ADR, as well as voluntary codes like PDP. Additionally, we provide practical driver training sessions, Depot Manager training and ADR awareness courses.

We also deliver specialised courses tailored to our members’ unique needs. Many of these courses can be conducted through the UKIFDA Training Academy.

Driver Training Resource

Our ADR, CPC and PDP courses have been streamlined so that an ADR refresher course will, in most cases, qualify a driver for their CPC and PDP training for that year.

Most UKIFDA CPC courses also include a driver’s PDP annual refresher requirement for that training year, saving our members time and money. PDP practical training can be provided directly, and we can assess up to four drivers in a day, or member companies may register their own driver assessors either directly with SQA or via UKIFDA.

The UKIFDA driver training platform allows members to manage, track, and book training courses. It also sends notifications about renewal dates and certificate status.

Range of Courses

In addition to specific driver training courses, we also offer various industry training courses, including Management CPC, ADR Awareness, Depot Manager, Depot Supervisor courses and Permit to Work.

Our training academy provides a variety of personnel development courses, including Time Management, Understanding Group Dynamics and The 5 Ps of Effective Meetings. We also offer work-related courses such as First Aid, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI), and Workplace Harassment Awareness.

We can also create customised training courses designed specifically to meet the needs of our members.

The UKIFDA Training Academy

The UKIFDA Training Academy delivers training courses through a user-friendly software platform. Members can manage, track and book training courses through the platform.
