is it right that the adr course is counted towards this new scam ? if so then surely its cheaper to do adr course and actually get some proper qualification out of it ■■
so thats 21 hrs towards this crap that is useful then ■■

If you could choose something for this what would you like? - drivers hours for example ?
some one i do work for intends to put his drivers through 7 hours of drivers hours every year and nothing else.

Totally legal under the rules and if that may also be the cheapest course in that area.
That course may also be done over 2 days of 3.5 hours each day so allowing the boss to give the drivers a couple of shorter work days in order to fit it in on those two consecutive shifts.
At least the drivers will be paid to do it and not have to pay for anything themselves 
So an ADR and a couple of drivers hours refreshers is all that is needed, seemples

If you have not already got ADR and can make use of such a qualification - yes - the ADR refresher is currently only worth 7 hours though 
Problem with your idea is ADR training counts but ADR exam does not count as that is not training.I think first aid training 1 day per annum would be sensible.Better still get the transport community to pull together and get this zb stopped.
so if an ADR course (not exam) counts towards the driver cpc, does an international operator cpc (to be taken in Sept) count as well ■■?
