About the Roadside Assistance & Recovery Training Course

When vehicles break down or get involved in incidents, your recovery team needs to act quickly, safely and legally. The roadside environment presents high risks; moving traffic, live lanes and complex recovery equipment. Industry standards such as the Institute of Vehicle Recovery (IVR) VR3 accreditation underscore the importance of accredited training.

This Roadside Assistance & Recovery Training course prepares your technicians and operators to manage recovery operations confidently. You’ll cover safe procedures, use of specialist equipment, hazard management and how to comply with regulatory requirements for recovery and roadside assistance providers.

By training your team in proper recovery techniques and compliance standards, you reduce risk, maintain operational continuity and protect your business’s reputation.

Who the Course Is For

This training is designed for:
  • Recovery operators and technicians responsible for commercial vehicle breakdown, winching and roadside repair.
  • Fleet or station-based teams who manage or support roadside recovery operations for HGVs, PSVs or vans.
  • Transport managers, compliance officers or supervisors who oversee recovery processes and need to ensure safe, compliant practice.
If your operation involves live lane work, road-side repair or recovery of commercial vehicles, this course delivers the skills and standards your team needs.
