HGV Training in Flintshire

COURSE IN Flintshire

Flintshire is considered by many to be a maritime region. As such, those who do not live in the Welsh county usually fail to realise how strong manufacturing and light industry are there. Yet Flintshire is a hotbed of automotive manufacturing, aerospace manufacturing, steelworks, and paper production. That explains why the area sees so many articulated lorries passing through. The trucks are carrying raw materials in and finished products out.

To make it all work, the logistics industry needs a fleet of carriers and drivers willing to do the work. That is where you come in. By undergoing HGV training in Flintshire, you can join the ranks of drivers who keep the county’s manufacturers and industrial companies hard at work. Do not underestimate how desperately your services are needed. There are open driving jobs just waiting to be filled by hard workers like you.

One of the best things about HGV training in Flintshire is that it does not take years. While others may spend 2 to 4 years in university prior to beginning their careers, lorry and bus drivers can complete their training and start looking for work in a month or two, depending on how quickly they learn. Most of the drivers who pass through our doors complete training in a matter of weeks.

Do you have what it takes to be a professional driver? If so, we have the truck driver training you need. New classes are regularly forming at all of our facilities around the UK; our facilities currently number more than four dozen.

The Secrets to Our Success

How do we manage to train so many drivers so quickly and effectively? What are the secrets to our success as a training provider? To tell you the truth, the only real secret is that there are no secrets. The training process we use is open and straightforward. It relies on taking advantage of how people normally learn throughout the course of their lives.

As an example, consider how a child learns to dress himself. His parents teach him one simple task to start with, then allow him to master that task. Let’s just say that first task is buttoning a shirt. Once it is mastered the child moves on to something else. Then a third task is added, and so on. With each additional task the child has plenty of opportunities to practice. Eventually, he can completely dress without any help at all. Learning to drive a truck works the same way.

We teach our students one concept at the time. What makes us different from some of our competitors is our pace. Where others may put students through long and arduous classes that present an overwhelming amount of information that students are expected to absorb, we move at a faster pace but with smaller, bite-sized chunks of information. This enables our students to concentrate on one concept at a time. We follow each concept in quick succession to the next, building one on top of another to create a full understanding of the driver’s body of knowledge.

If you can handle a fast-paced and intense learning approach, and most of our students can, you should be able to learn what you need to know relatively quickly. And don’t worry if you start to struggle and fall behind. Our instructors are trained to identify when students are having trouble. At the first sign of struggle, an instructor will come alongside and provide any extra help and support you need.

Your Success Is Our Success

The HGV Training Centre has grown to become the largest provider of professional driving instruction in the UK. We did not achieve this by accident. Rather, our tremendous growth is a direct result of our commitment to students. We do not succeed as a company unless you succeed as a student. Therefore, everything we do is focused on making sure you learn what you need to know to pass your tests on the first try.

Much of our success as a company lies in the professionals we employee. If you decide to sign up for HGV training in Flintshire, and we hope you will, you will be served by:

• Experienced Instructors – We search throughout the UK to find the absolute best trainers we can find. All of our instructors are experienced professionals, meaning they have spent time as professional drivers in the real world. We believe there is no better instructor than one who has actually done the job.
• Administrative Staff – There is a certain amount of administrative work that goes along with getting a commercial driving licence. For example, tests have to be booked well in advance. The HGV Training Centre employees a full-time administrative staff to handle those things on behalf of students. That leaves students free to concentrate on their studies.
• Training Specialists – We also employ training specialists who have the task of guiding students through their training programmes every step of the way. They are available to answer questions, offer advice, and otherwise help with those tasks that are not handled by instructors or administrative staff.

Our commitment to students is clearly seen through the caring and dedicated staff we employ. But it is seen in other ways as well. For example, we provide all of the learning materials that our students need to complete training. That starts with preparation for the HGV theory exam.

All new students receive advanced software that makes theory exam preparation easy and convenient. The software includes hundreds of questions taken from previous exams as well as practice tests that simulate the real thing. This prepares students so that they know what to expect when they actually sit for the test.

New students also receive two packets of information and paperwork to get the process started. The first packet relates to the HGV medical exam while the second applies to the provisional entitlement. Our administrative staff is available to help students complete the paperwork and get it submitted to the proper agencies. As an added bonus, the HGV medical package includes contact information for doctors all across the UK offering exams at affordable prices.

Start Training for Your Future Career

We believe everyone deserves a shot at a productive career. That includes you. If you have thought about becoming a professional driver, operating lorries or buses, for example, the training we provide will prepare you for your future career. You will learn the knowledge and skills you need to earn a very comfortable living for the rest of your working life.

Why become a professional driver? Here are just three reasons:

• Competitive Pay – You may never become a millionaire by driving a truck, but you will do very well. Starting pay for new drivers ranges between £18,000 and £22,000; you can earn £35,000 or more with a little experience and time.
• Job Stability – The ongoing driver shortage in the UK means companies are aggressively competing for the services of new drivers. That is not likely to change over the next decade. As long as you do your job well, you will not have to worry about steady employment.
• Advancement – Contrary to popular belief, professional driving is not a dead-end job with nowhere to go. Plenty of drivers advance into other positions, including fleet management and driver training. You can remain behind the wheel for your entire career or transition into a new position as you gain experience.

We encourage you to seriously consider a career as a professional driver within the logistics industry. Haulage and transport companies need your services and are aggressively competing for drivers.
