About the Course

Managing drivers’ hours and the tachograph is a central compliance responsibility for professional transport operations. Breaches of hours, incorrect entries or mis-use of tachographs can lead to fines, roadside prohibitions and damage to your operator licence.

Our Drivers’ Hours & Tachograph Operation course illuminates the legal framework, demystifies digital and analogue tachograph systems and gives drivers and operators the skills to monitor, record and defend their compliance position. Drawing on real-world examples and current regulations, we make the complex clear and actionable.

Who This Course Is For

  • Drivers of HGVs, PSVs and commercial vehicles who operate under drivers’ hours regulations.
  • Fleet managers, transport supervisors and compliance officers responsible for tachograph data, driver scheduling and operator-licence records.
  • Operators seeking to improve their systems for monitoring working time, rest breaks and digital tachograph downloads.
