DVSA Accredited Category C & C+E HGV Licence Courses For UK Drivers Updated
Oct 26, 2026
TRS Training has updated its Category C and C+E HGV licence courses, offering car licence holders and existing Category C drivers structured routes into professional driving roles across UK logistics.
St Helens, United Kingdom, October 26, 2026 /PressCable/ -- TRS Training has updated its car to Category C, car to Category C+E, and Category C to C+E courses, giving drivers three separate HGV qualification routes, each concluding with a DVSA practical test.
More information is available at https://www.trstrainingltd.com/2026/08/26/what-to-expect-during-your-5-day-hgv-training-course/
The update comes as the UK’s HGV workforce continues to shrink and age. According to Logistics UK, driver numbers fell from 313,000 to 283,000 within a single year in the early 2020s, with only 4% of drivers currently aged under 25. TRS Training aims to address this gap by giving new entrants a clearer path into professional driving.
The car to Category C course qualifies car licence holders to drive rigid lorries over 7.5 tonnes and up to 32 tonnes, the vehicles used for delivery, refuse collection, removals and construction work. Many drivers begin here to build experience before moving on to larger vehicles.
The five-day Category C course covers around 20 hours of practical instruction, including walk-around checks, junctions, roundabouts, motorway driving, and overtaking. Progress is recorded throughout, and learners complete a reverse manoeuvre test before taking the DVSA practical test, which lasts approximately one hour. A mock test is included ahead of test day.
For articulated lorries up to 44 tonnes, car drivers can choose a five-day or nine-day car-to-Category C+E course. The longer option gives learners extra time behind the wheel. Current Category C holders can take a five-day C to C+E upgrade instead. A C+E licence opens access to long-distance haulage, supermarket deliveries, port container transport, and international freight roles.

Learners starting out can begin with an HGV starter package. It covers the medical, the D2 and D4 application forms, six months of online theory revision, live theory lessons, and booking for the Module 1a, 1b and 2 theory tests. Newly qualified drivers who plan to drive professionally can add Module 4 training, a four-hour session plus test for the legally required Driver CPC.
Courses run at TRS Training’s driving schools across the UK. Learners also have access to an on-site DVSA test centre, modular sessions, quick retests, PayPal instalment payment options, and connections to employers recruiting qualified drivers.
