Certificate of Professional Competency

Driver CPC was introduced across the EU in 2008 for professional bus drivers and 2009 for professional truck drivers to set and maintain high standards of road safety, health and safety and driving among professional drivers of buses and trucks.

Three key aims:

• Ensuring all professional drivers have good driving and safety standards and that those standards are maintained throughout their career
• Creating a common standard for the training and testing of drivers throughout the EU
• Reducing fatalities and serious injuries on Irish roads. The RSA’s target is for Ireland to have one of the lowest casualty rates in Europe.

Periodic training is compulsory and will help you be:

• A better and safer driver
• More environmentally aware and cost conscious
• Physically healthier
