Professional driver qualification; application for recognition as a training center.

Training centers that want to offer the accelerated initial qualification and/or the continuing education within the framework of the professional driver qualification law require state recognition by the locally responsible government.

Description

State-approved training centers are allowed to offer the accelerated initial qualification and/or the advanced training, which are usually necessary insofar as carriage of goods and passengers on public roads is carried out with motor vehicles for which a driver's license in classes C1, C1E, C, CE, D1, D1E, D or DE is required.

Professional drivers can prove participation in training by means of the driver qualification certificate commissioned by the competent district administrative authority and produced by Bundesdruckerei.

  • they have the personnel and material requirements for teaching the knowledge and skills required for the accelerated initial qualification and/or continuing education,
  • they employ sufficient teaching staff in reasonable proportion to the number of participants in the initial qualification and/or continuing training
  • they have suitable classrooms as well as teaching materials that are suitable and sufficient for each participant in order to carry out the teaching,
  • continuous training of the teaching staff is ensured, and
  • there are no facts that speak against the personal reliability of the applicant.

Procedure
