-- TRS Training has announced a five-day HGV Category C driver training course in Bristol, developed for individuals transitioning into commercial driving careers within the logistics sector.
More information about the course is available at https://www.trstrainingltd.com/hgv-driving-bristol/
According to the Road Haulage Association, as many as 110,000 UK lorry drivers stepped away from the profession in 2024 after failing to renew their Driver Qualification Cards, pointing to a driver shortage that has not disappeared but has become less visible amid lower freight volumes. TRS Training has presented its Bristol-based course to help address this shortfall, offering a structured entry route for new drivers joining the industry.
The five-day course includes approximately 20 hours of instruction with an experienced HGV instructor. Learners work toward two required assessments: the 3A reverse manoeuvre test and the 3B practical driving test, both administered by the DVSA.
Instructors monitor each trainee's progress throughout the course and schedule the 3A test only once readiness is demonstrated, ensuring learners are prepared before advancing to the next stage of assessment. The instructors bring hands-on experience relevant to commercial driving, supporting learners through both practical skill-building and test preparation throughout the course.

Theory test preparation resources are also provided, giving learners additional support ahead of both the theory and practical components of the licensing process. Modular scheduling allows trainees to arrange sessions around existing work or personal obligations.
Training takes place at TRS Training's Avonmouth facility, located within one of Bristol's major logistics areas. Aspokesperson at TRS Training notes that the site's position places learners close to freight and distribution activity relevant to the sector they are entering.
Flexible payment structures are available to participants, including instalment plans and pay-as-you-go options intended to reduce upfront financial barriers for those changing careers.
Beyond the training itself, TRS Training connects course graduates with employers seeking qualified HGV drivers, supporting a more direct path from training into employment within the logistics and haulage sectors.
