Driver training towards cpc

ROG:
Periodic DCPC can count for C or CE training under certain conditions

The training provider must have a 7 hour driver training course approved for DCPC
That 7 hour course can be a single day or done over two days of 3.5 hours - supposed to be within 24 hours but that rule is usually relaxed if done over two consecutive days

The driver must already have a LGV C1 or C on their licence and have either DCPC aquired/grandfather rights or have passed initial DCPC module 4

Test hours will not count so on a 5 day course of 2 to 1 then 28 hours DCPC is possible or 14 hours DCPC for 4 half days of 1 to 1
On a 2 to 1 the trainee not driving is deemed to still be learning

I hope that helps

Found this post from March 2012 and got me thinking. Could someone who has aquired/grandfather rights going staight to CE over 10 days training receive all 35 hours DCPC?

I had grandfather rights and I’m fairly sure my CE training was what secured my CPC card

Definitely worth while asking training companies about, could save me time and money.
