The Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) is looking to procure the services of a supplier(s) to deliver Intensive Driver Training for approximately 144 delegates over an initial 3-year contract period.
DVSA has an ongoing requirement for Driving Examiners to attend Intensive Driver Training to acquire the driving licence categories C, CE and D. Due to the current UK shortages of Heavy Good Vehicles (HGV) and Passenger Service Vehicle (PSV) drivers, DVSA needs to increase the number of Driver Examiners for these categories. This will allow DVSA to meet the increasing demand for driving tests in these categories.
