Continuing training programme Professional competence Code 95: individual or tailored to your company!
WHAT IS PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCE CODE 95?
The European directive on professional competence requires active truck drivers to follow continuing training at an accredited training centre.
WHICH DRIVERS MUST FOLLOW A CONTINUING TRAINING PROGRAMME?
To determine which continuing training a driver must follow, we look at when the driving licence was obtained. Drivers are divided into 4 categories:
Category 1: Licence C obtained before 09/09/2009 or licence D obtained before 09/09/2008
Category 2: Licence C with code 95 obtained between 09/09/2009 and 01/02/2013
Category 3: Licence C with code 95 obtained after 01/02/2013
Category 4: Classic licence C (without professional competence) obtained after 09/09/2009
The continuing training courses for professional competence Code 95 are divided into three themes:
Theme 1: Continuing training in rational driving based on safety regulations
Theme 2: Application of the regulations
Theme 3: Health, road and environmental safety, service and logistics
WHICH CONTINUING TRAINING PROGRAMME MUST THE DRIVER FOLLOW?
This depends on the category to which the driver belongs. The following situations are possible:
I am a driver from categories 1 and 2 and I want to renew the professional competence of my licence C for the first time
- 35 hours of continuing training
- 5 courses of 7 hours
- Continuing training programme freely selectable from the three themes
- Practical training behind the wheel is not mandatory
I am a driver from category 3 OR I want to renew the professional competence of my licence C for the second time
