ADR TRAINING

ADR Driver Training, Birmingham, West Midlands

Comprehensive Hazardous Goods Training

If you’re involved in the transportation of dangerous goods (Hazardous Goods) falling under the purview of the UK CDG (Carriage of Dangerous Goods) Regulations, you must possess an ADR Driver Training Certificate.

Action Training is a leading provider of ADR training, adhering to the ADR regulations, which mandate classroom training and ADR exams set by the prestigious Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA).

Classroom-Based Training and ADR Exams

Please note that ADR training must be conducted in a classroom setting, and successful completion requires passing a series of written multiple-choice examinations. It is crucial to emphasise that the Department of Transport strictly prohibits any form of assistance during these exams.

Accessibility for Learners with Special Needs

If you have any learning difficulties, it is crucial to notify us at least 4 weeks before the course commencement. We can assist you in coordinating with the SQA by providing the necessary documentation, such as medical reports from doctors, for their consideration and decision.

ADR Dangerous Goods Training & Working Time Directive (WTD)

Under the Road Transport (Working Time) Regulations 2005, which fall under the EU 561/2006 regulations, working time for drivers includes job-related training, including ADR training. At Action Training, our basic Package Goods Course runs from Monday to Thursday morning of the training week. The afternoon of Thursday and Friday is exclusively dedicated to Tanker training candidates.

As an approved training centre by the Joint Approvals Unit for Periodic Training (JAUPT), we also offer Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence) for drivers attending our initial courses. This means that ADR candidates can claim 28 hours (4 modules) of CPC without any additional effort.
