Hi. Today I finish my periodic CPC Course. Was really nice 5 days. A lot og group talks about rules on the Road sharing experiences. Thank you Adam Grant our instructor. Highly recommend 2 start ltd.
Couldn’t recommend these guys more. Good quality vehicles and amazing instructors that fill you with confidence. First time pass with 1 minor. A special thanks to Carl, Joe, Dell and Mark.
I went from zero experience to passing and I absolutely believe it was down to Martin and the rest of the team. They were patient and professional and I enjoyed every min. Passed first time as well.
I was allocated Instructor Martin Keen who was very professional and extremely knowledgeable. I particularly enjoyed the constructive criticism and feedback of the errors of my ways and techniques of driving as I progressed through the course, which I took on board and on my test day I was well ready and confident in passing. which I then passed my practical C + E driving test. Happy with this company.
I passed my class 2 first time. My instructor (angel in disghise) was Janet. Would highly recommend 2 Start. Top drawer professionals. Well worth it. Thankyou so very much.
I can’t recommend 2Start highly enough, I did class 2 training and test with them and then Class 1 training and test. Janette was very patient and professional during my class 2 and likewise Adam was to during my class 1. Both instructors put me at ease which made for a great week of training. Due to my own stupidity I failed my first test on both classes but I went back for second tests and Martin took me to them, again very calming and professional. Great company, nice vehicles to learn in.
Absolutely fantastic group of people, massive thanks to Martin for the training on my cat c and an even bigger thanks to Carl for my first day on my cat ce and Adam your just a gem
The staff are friendly and easy to get along with, which helped ease me into learning at my own pace. All the instructors were experience drivers with many years in professional industries. I have managed to complete my Cat C and Mod 4 with the company, with ease. The website is easy to navigate with multiple ways to communicate with the adviser team based in Portsmouth. Also having prices available to view beforehand makes it easy to see how much money will likely be required, and when talking to Jack (adviser) it was all streamlined, quick and with no forceful selling like I had experience with other companies.One thing to note is they do not guide you through the theory process as this will be something you will need to prep for and complete prior to practicals, however there are a lot of material available online and in the DVSA books (recommend "The official DVSA guide to: Driving goods vehicle" a lot of useful information).

Huge thanks to Paul and Rob at 2Start in Worthing.Excellent training. Got me through my class 1 HGV test with no fuss or trouble. Friendly, professional, and thorough.
I passed my test yesterday with Paul and he was amazing, patient and friendly. He gave me clear instructions and told me to ask him any questions. I used 2 start Ltd for the second time and they have been amazing both time. Very professional highly recommend them to anyone who wants to do their licence
Did my C+E with 2 Start this week and passed first time. Paul my instructor was fantastic, explained everything precisely and made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. I highly recommend 2 Start and from my experience Paul
Getting in and driving an artic for the first time is a daunting task to say the least. My instructor (Paul) was awesome. His instructions were clear and easy to understand and I'm sure he must have got a little fed up having to repeat himself to me. His patience with me was endless he always stayed calm which made the training quite a relaxed experience and made for a nice drive. He was friendly and great to talk to which made the driving more enjoyable it was actually a good laugh and good fun. I could actually hear Paul's voice in my mind as I took my test like an angel on my shoulder. I passed first time and I can't thank him enough for all his help. I highly recommend 2 start, if I could give more stars I would.Thanks again Paul, wishing you all the best mate.Mr S CurtisPs Paul should definitely get employee of the month again.
would highly recommend rob who was my cat c trainer,always able to answer any queastions and explain things clearly,top bloke
Briliant team!!! With their help and professionalism I have managed to get a better sense of what it means to be behind the wheel of a lorry. They helped me with information regarding all my questions and to improve to my driving skills in order to pass the driving test for cat C. Can't wait to carry on with them and start doing my C+E and CPC. They are the best and I have already recommended them to a friend who is about to start also his practice with them. Thank you for all the help Paul.
Mark (Worthing Manager) and Paul (instructor) worked tirelessly to give me all the help I needed to pass my class C. It took a few goes but I got there and the encouragement was always there. Good facilities at Worthing and I’ll be back their at some point to get my C + E. On passing was being driven back from Lancing and passed Mark in a 2Start Artic training another student heading to Lancing...got a loud congrats blast on the air horn and saw Mark bouncing up and down on his seat and giving me the thumbs up...it made me laugh. Good guys at Worthing & good training.
Brilliant place,they helped me through my cat c tests.i was a very nervous learner and i passed.awesome instructors and Paul was a great trainer.im already saving for my next test and wouldn't even think about going elsewhere.
Very professional tutors explain everything clearly so the information stays in would highly recommend this company
Superb trading team. Paul excellent communicator and patient approach to teaching. Highly recommend this team for all logistics training.
I've been looking to get into the HGV industry as a lorry driver and I've been looking into booking a course, so I thought I'd try some introduction/trial drives with a few companies to see which company I like the most.After trying a few companies, 2 Start Training in Worthing is by far the best company I've experienced. The instructor Paul was very good, he was able to communicate and teach clearly and effectively and he made me feel at ease.2 Start Training had by far the best lorry to train in. A different company that I had an introduction drive with put me in a old, worn out lorry that broke down!2 Start Training have a professional, cosy office/reception area with break out rooms, along with a fully stocked vending machine. I'll definitely be completing a 5 day course in order to hopefully gain my HGV class 2 (category C) licence.I would highly recommend this company if you're looking to gain qualifications for the haulage industry.
Mark and the team at 2 Start Worthing are utterly professional and ably demonstrate their commitment to getting you to the best standard. Great motivators who encourage and build your confidence. They are approachable enthusiastic and make full use of their good facilities and equipment.
Jon my trainer answered all my questions and made me feel relaxed, and ready for my new job. Thanks, great service.
Fantastic experience with the worthing team. Passed class 2 first time. Great team of staff and a great instructor Sean who was very professional and easy to get along with. Thanks to everyone at 2Start Training.
