Courses For Employers

Lancashire based employers can train their Class 2 drivers up to Class 1, receiving up to 90% funding for all training costs, dependent on their number of employees. Employers with under 250 staff will receive 90% funding, requiring them to only pay a 10% contribution. Alternatively, employers with over 250 staff will receive 70% funding, meaning a 30% contribution will be required. This means the above course can be as cheap as £350.

Funding For Individuals:

Eligible residents of Lancashire who hold a class 2 HGV licence can be eligible for full funding for this course, meaning no cost or contribution is required for the training.
