With our association with Anglia Compliance and Training, The Transport Manager now offers FORS accredited CPC training including;
FORS Safe Urban Driving Training
Essential training for all commercial drivers operating HGVs regularly in the urban environment and where there are high volumes of vulnerable road users, such as cyclists and pedestrians. SUD Training is Driver CPC accredited and fully aligned to meet the requirements of:
- Work Related Road Risk (WRRR)
- Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) Silver level
- Construction Logistics & Cyclist Safety (CLOCS) Standard
The objectives of the course are for HGV Drivers to gain an understanding of:
- how and why city roads are changing to accommodate active travel, such as walking and cycling
- How to identify the most vulnerable road users (VRUs) and how they interact with traffic
- How to share the roads safely with others by applying defensive driving techniques
- the safe use and limitations of supplementary vehicle safety equipment and how to maintain its effectiveness
As part of the course they will also gain first-hand experience as a VRU, through on-cycle hazard awareness, and recognise why cyclists behave the way they do
SUD is delivered in two sections, a classroom theory module and a practical cycling module, where drivers experience a cyclist’s view of the road. The two modules are delivered on the same day.
FORS – Van Smart
Van Smart is aimed at getting Drivers of Light Goods Vehicles to better understand their role and responsibilities in relation to safe workplace transport operations
Driver behaviour in terms of fitness and health, driver responsibilities for vehicle and load safety and the safety of other road users form a key part of the course and help drivers meet the challenges provided by their working environment – the Urban Roadspace
Van Smart is a Transport for London (TfL) backed driver training programme that aims to reduce work related road risks, improve safety and create long-term behavioural change in the van sector.
Van Smart is delivered in two sections, a classroom theory module and a practical cycling module, where van drivers experience a cyclist’s view of the road. The two modules are delivered on the same day, and courses can be delivered either at one of our training venues or at you premises – subject to suitability for both classroom and cycle training
