    What you will study

    You start with safety at the yard: pre‑start inspections, defect reporting, and load restraint that stands up to the road. Then you take it on the highway—planning routes and rest breaks, managing fatigue and CoR responsibilities, and handling real‑world delivery pressures with calm, courteous customer communication. By the end, you’re operating within licence scope with confident vehicle control, compliant paperwork, and the judgment to keep yourself, your freight, and the public safe.
