ADR Vocational Training Certificate
From: £800.00
Under the European Agreement on ADR, drivers of vehicles with tanks and certain tank components, and some drivers of vehicles carrying dangerous goods in packages, must hold a special vocational certificate, sometimes referred to informally as an ‘ADR Certificate’. All drivers of vehicles carrying dangerous goods must attend an approved basic ADR training course. These courses equip drivers with information and tools so that they:
- are aware of the hazards in the carriage of dangerous goods
- can take steps to reduce the likelihood of an incident taking place
- can take all necessary measures for their own safety and that of the public and the environment to limit the effects of any incident that does occur
- have individual practical experience of the actions they will need to take

The ADR Vocational Training Certificate is essential for drivers who transport dangerous goods by road. ADR stands for the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road. This course helps drivers meet safety and legal standards across the UK and Europe.
Specifically, the training covers common classes of hazardous goods, such as flammable liquids, corrosives, gases, and toxic substances. It applies to both packaged loads and tankers. As a result, drivers gain the skills to handle a wide range of dangerous materials safely and professionally.
Throughout the course, drivers learn about vehicle safety, load types, legal responsibilities, and emergency procedures. In addition, they practise using safety equipment, applying warning signage, and responding to incidents with the correct procedures. Therefore, they stay prepared to manage risks on the road.
After completing the training, drivers sit an exam. Those who pass receive an ADR certificate. This qualification lasts for five years and allows legal transport of dangerous goods across the UK and Europe.
Overall, the ADR Vocational Training Certificate is vital for any driver working with hazardous goods. Whether you’re entering the industry or updating your skills, this course ensures you’re well-prepared, legally compliant, and confident in your professional role.
