Since its inception as HazMat in the 1980’s, through to the full ADR licence required by today’s drivers, EP has been at the forefront of delivering quality Dangerous Goods tuition. Just take a look at their reviews online and see why they are a number 1 ranked UK Company.

Along with suitable vehicle markings, PPE, appropriate documentation, etc. a VTC (ADR licence) is essential to ensure your company complies with regulations.

From their purpose-built training centre in Great Bookham, Surrey (Jct. 9 off M25) EP Training provide courses run every other week, encompassing the packages and tanker elements of ADR.

Not only do they provide the 7 of the 9 general classes of Dangerous Goods (2,3,4,5,6,8 and 9) every other week of the year, they also deliver Class 1, Explosives and Class 7, Radioactives on a regular basis. One of the very few companies in the UK to offer this service.

Their ADR training courses are delivered by expert instructors who have many years’ experience at providing DG tuition.  All EP’s ADR instructors are also DGSA (Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor) qualified.

EP Training is also one of the few ADR training providers that conduct the ADR examinations online and not “paper based”.

What this means is you get the results immediately after your examinations.  There is an opportunity to do an instant free resit and you will receive your ADR licence much quicker.  Our customers find this extremely useful as it means their drivers can get moving dangerous goods much sooner.  

Once candidates have passed their ADR exams the SQA (the examination body) will issue a Vocational Training Certificate (ADR).

The type of ADR that you will require depends greatly on what classes of dangerous goods your drivers are transporting and in what, i.e. packages and/or tanks.

To be awarded a VTC (ADR licence), which is valid for 5 years attendees must have passed at least the following:

  • Core plus Packages and/or Tanker Module and at least 1 of the 9 classes of DG’s.
  • For those transporting only Class 1 and/or 7 then only the Class or Core module need be passed.

Driver CPC

EP Training is an approved JAUPT training centre for the delivery of Periodic Driver CPC training. This means whilst attending your ADR course you can get Driver CPC hours at the same time.

For example, if you attend our 5 day Packaged Goods and Tanker course you can also get 35 hours Driver CPC (28 hours are gained whilst attending ADR course and another 7 hours Driver CPC is provided free of charge).
