The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) voluntary register of Large Goods Vehicle (LGV) Instructors was launched on 1 April 1997. The Register has been developed by DSA in close conjunction with the Freight Transport Association, the Road Haulage Association, and the Road Haulage & Distribution Training Council - now known as Skills for Logistics, the National Training Federation, the Institute of Large Goods Vehicle Instructors, the Association of Vocational Driver Training Providers and RTITB Services Ltd.

Currently registration is voluntary, although compulsory registration is to become statute in due course. This has dramatically increased the standards required and is now the bench mark for professional LGV trainers.

Driver Training Centre Instructors have been registered from the start, and are retested by the DSA every four years, thereby maintaining and improving the very high standards we set ourselves as the ‘Training Providers’
