From day one, the Specialised Training Team were on the ball re: my LGV training. Every module, training videos, and guidance were spot on. Help was always at the end of a telephone or online. I gained my LGV licence 2 days ago, and I would recommend Specialised Training to anyone who wishes to have a career as a professional driver. They're also connected to many companies to find you a job after you've qualified.

Angus Grey review of training progress and guidance input.
Hi All,
I am generally very happy to be having my hand held as I make my way through the various stages towards obtaining the Full HGV Licence.
It’s wonderful to have the pain of various booking procedures removed and great to know the team are on hand to assist in event of any difficulties with progressing.
My only grumble, given I am not working currently, is that it doesn’t all happen particularly fast.
This means I have to get through about another six weeks or so before a chance of work...
The online app for the theory and HP teaching is excellent.
One of the questions in the theory exam asked about the additional near side mirror.... on the app, it was assigned to assist with parking, in the exam, it did not show parking as one of the options, so randomly picked one, ‘moving off’. There were Also a couple of other questions that I felt had not been covered by the app but I can’t remember them now!
Also in the app, one of the conversions to feet from metres showed wrong? It was against the 3.5m mark.
The HP is frustrating as in my opinion, people all react differently by either answering ( clicking ) very early or I guess too late, but also difficult to fully interpret what is required.. That said, the exam preamble did outline you would not be punished for clicking for a perceived hazard that did not escalate to ‘become’ a hazard....!
I am really looking forward to learning how to operate a lorry, it’s gears And braking systems in particular....
Your Team were very quick to respond today and despite the bore of having to wait for five or so weeks, I appreciate the attention Shown to candidates / Clients.
Thanks again
Very best
Angus

Dear Angus,
Thank you for your 5 star review.
We are pleased that you are happy with the training material and services. We are also pleased to read that you have had an excellent service experienced with the team.
I can see that you started with us on the 19th of November and so you have been with us for 1 month and a couple of weeks. Just to let you know, all of our customers are given a full 180 days to complete their training. This is to give them ample time to fit in the training around their commitments. However, with you, we anticipate that you will be fully qualified very soon. The only thing is to wait to get your licence updated and to receive your DQC card which usually takes between 2-4 weeks.
Very good luck with your new career and if there is anything else you need, please feel free to contact us.
Best regards,

Specialist HGV Training were excellent from the first phone call to sign up with them to the last phone call once I had passed all my tests. It took a good 5 months to get through from beginning to end passing first time in the tests, I mention this because some people will say you can quickly get it all done in a matter of weeks but that doesn’t seem to be the case . I would highly recommend this training team as they are always willing to help and very clear in all they say. Many thanks to everyone at specialised HGV training team

Dear Ryle,
Thank you for leaving a 5 star review for us.
Yes, when you do the Back to Back (both Category C and C+E), it can take a bit longer especially also to allow the DVLA to update your licence. We can see that you passed everything first time and consequently as a reward you were refunded your Pass Protection back!
We are pleased to hear that overall you were satisfied with our services and that you have experienced a great journey throughout the training with our team.

Worst experience in my entire life to join on line people who you never see or know to scam you in £5000 contract in monthly payment before getting the license and even the job.
Real waist stressful and a bully company for their money with their emails and texts requesting their money payment or debt collectors by your doors.
Never trust hgv on line training may be going to real decent centre on the field more secure to those on line scams.
