Intensive Trailer Towing Training Courses

Trailer Towing Training

At the HGV Training Services (HGV Training Centre), we are apt to describe our trailer towing training as intensive. This description is purposeful. We describe it as intensive in order to set us apart from the competition. What we do is designed specifically to get our students through their training and testing as quickly as possible without compromising quality. We do not put students through unnecessarily long courses just so that we can charge them more.

The word ‘intensive’ is defined by the Cambridge Dictionaries as “involving a lot of effort or activity in a short period of time.” It is a word that very accurately describes what we do in all of our training programmes. Rather than utilising extremely long and cumbersome training courses, we present information to our students in very short and concentrated segments. In this sense, we pack a lot of activity into a short amount of time.

Having said that, there is nothing to worry about when you train with the HGV Training Services (HGV Training Centre). Our trailer towing training is easily adaptable to every student’s individual learning capabilities. Furthermore, our instructors give each student the extra help and support they need to learn. We are not shuffling students through without regard to whether or not they are succeeding in their training.

Why We Prefer the Intensive Approach

There are lots of different approaches to trailer towing training. Some of our competitors go at a slower and more comfortable pace; others stick only to the basics without getting into any of the advanced concepts of towing. In the end, every training company has its reasons for adopting the approach they use. So why has the HGV Training Services (HGV Training Centre) adopted our intensive approach? Simply put, it works.

Our students consistently achieve a first-time pass rate in excess of 90% across all of our training programmes. When you look at the numbers UK-wide, you will find that the average pass rate for the car and trailer test is between 65% and 70%. We have confidence in every student who passes through our doors before going on to take the car and trailer test.

Our intensive training approach works because it takes advantage of the natural human learning process involving short-term memory. By presenting information in short and intense segments, we are able to:

Increase Comprehension – The human mind naturally learns by building one concept upon another. Rather than throw a long list of ideas at our students all at once, we conquer one idea at a time. This improves comprehension across the entire training programme.
Improve Retention – It is one thing to learn a few facts only to forget them in a very short time. It is another thing altogether to learn those facts and retain them over the long term. A concentrated and intensive training approach improves retention through the same building block concept. In order to understand a new concept, the student must retain information about previously learned concepts.
Improve Recall – The beauty of working with short-term memory in a training programme is that it helps improve recall at test time. Think of it as looking through the list of contacts on your phone. You find it much easier if those contacts are organised into smaller, logical groups. That is what our intensive training programme does. It organises information in the mind so that it is readily available at testing time.

If you have never tried this training approach yourself, it may seem rather strange to you during the first day or two of your trailer towing training. But you will quickly get used to it. Before long, you will be ready to take your trailer test and get your licence. Best of all, you can do so in as little as five days.

We Train Throughout the UK

The HGV Training Services (HGV Training Centre) is proud to be able to say we offer trailer training in nearly all UK regions. Since our company was founded, we have established an expansion strategy designed to make training accessible to as many people as possible. This has led us to open more than four dozen training centres across the country. We will continue to expand in order to meet the needs of both individuals and company drivers.

We now have training facilities in and around every major metropolitan area in the UK. Regardless of where you currently live or work, there is a training centre within a short distance from you. As a result, we can also say that our trailer towing training is convenient. You do not need to commute for hours on end or even stay away from home overnight just to receive your training. Drive to your local training facility in the morning and return home in the afternoon.

Other Benefits of Our Training

Thus far, we have explained our intensive training approach and the convenience of our extensive network of UK locations. But you still might be wondering why you should choose the HGV Training Services (HGV Training Centre) as your training provider. Fair enough. Allow us to explain some of the other benefits of training with us:

Cost and Financing – It is part of our business model to keep training costs as low as possible. We are content to earn a profit on volume rather than making courses as expensive as we can. In addition to our affordable prices, we also offer financing as well. You can finance your training now and pay for it over time.
Experienced Instructors – We are very selective about the instructors we hire. One of our prerequisites is that instructors have real world experience in the kinds of driving they will be teaching others. That means the instructor who teaches you how to tow a trailer has real-world experience doing just that.
Individual Attention – It is obvious that not every student we instruct learns the same way or at the same pace. No worries there. We provide individual attention to each student on an as-needed basis. Our instructors are trained to be attentive to individual needs.
Time Commitment – When you train with us, you will not have to commit months of time to the learning process. Our comprehensive course takes just five days for the average student to complete. We also offer shorter courses for drivers who qualify.
Administrative Assistance – There is paperwork, test booking, and other administrative tasks that go along with earning your trailer licence. We want our students to concentrate on learning rather than administration, so we offer full administrative assistance that makes sure those other things get done.

We believe the HGV Training Services (HGV Training Centre) should be your preferred choice for trailer towing training in the UK. We have worked hard over the years to build a reputation as being one of the finest training companies in the country. We invite you to contact us for more information about our trailer programmes, including pricing, class schedules, and training centre locations.

With a reasonable investment in time and financial resources, you can complete your trailer towing training in as little as five days. You will be more than prepared to take your test and pass it the first time. And with licence in hand, you will be able to tow your caravan, cargo trailer, or horsebox trailer safely and legally.
