Professional Driver Module

The Professional Driver Qualification Act regulates the fast-tracked base qualification and the professional driver further training, also known as the 5 modules.

In accordance with the Professional Driver Qualification Act, all drivers in both goods and passenger transport must complete 35 hours of further training every 5 years, if they carry out commercial trips and use vehicles for which a class C/CE, C1/C1E, D/DE or D1/D1E driving license is required.

As proof of further training the Professional Driver Qualification Verification has been put in place.
