Why you need up-to-date Driver CPC
You must hold a current Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC) and a valid Driver CPC card (sometimes called a DQC) to legally work as a driver in the UK. If you drive professionally without your Driver CPC card you can be fined. You must also complete periodic training, which involves all professional drivers undertaking 35 hours of training every 5 years
