Dump Truck Driver Basic Module Professional Competence Guideline (U35)

Dump Truck Driver Basic Module Professional Competence Guideline (U35)

The TLN Tipper Truck Companies submarket and SOMA Business Training have jointly and independently developed a vocational training course for Tipper Truck Drivers. The four modules offered are the basic module, the module "off-road driving', the module 'working with the asphalt tipper' and the module 'working with the low loader'.

During this basic module, the trainee learns to operate the tipper truck safely, effectively, and efficiently, and to avoid additional maintenance through conscious use. In addition, to maintain their professional competence, professional drivers are required to complete 35 hours of continuing education over a five-year period, in accordance with the European Directive on Professional Competence 2003/59.

The course is suitable for anyone who wants to learn to operate a tipper truck safely, effectively, and efficiently, and who wants to avoid additional maintenance through conscious use, as well as all professional drivers to whom the Professional Competence Directive applies.
