The initiative is in response to the growing driver shortage that is affecting the whole logistics sector and the project will deliver 3 cohorts of training to up skill and prepare a maximum of 30 candidates in total for driving roles within the logistics industry. The successful supplier will facilitate participants in achieving a Class 2 LGV Category C licence, where medicals, tests, driving tuition and employability training will all be delivered. The programme must be designed to aid retention and candidates will be supported during this process and also if successful, once in employment – to help sustainability. The programme will include pre-employment training, a work experience placement and a guaranteed job interview. Birmingham City Council, on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions (Birmingham and Solihull District), invites providers to make an application to be considered to provide and facilitate the LGV driver training programme.
