History

Incorporated in 2008, Prompt Training Limited is well established and works with some of the largest logistics companies in the UK. Hence the name, we started our journey delivering Driver CPC training. As a JAUPT approved training centre (AC00675) we continue to offer our customers a wide variety of approved courses. In 2009 we launched our Compliance division to support operators with managing the ever-changing DVSA legislation. Our interventions continue to help operators identify areas of non-compliance and address them as well as making ‘Best Practice’ recommendations. Prompt helps protect businesses and drivers from potential threats to the operator’s licence and/or professional driving qualification. We have built our reputation by developing and delivering industry leading solutions, working closely with our clients and reacting to their ever changing needs. In 2010 we launched our ‘Prompt Analysis Bureaux’ offering operators both analogue and digital tachograph analysis. In 2017 we gained ISO 9001:2015 certification. In 2017 we received approval from the DVSA as ‘Earned Recognition’ auditors.

"Our services of training, compliance and analysis will bring the best protection to driver and operator licences from potential penalties and prosecutions."

Prompt’s nationwide coverage means that we can cater for fleet operations of all sizes. We can help operators with their obligation and interpretation of transport legislation.
