EP Training Wins Prestige Award for HGV Training Excellence 2026/27

We have some great news to share. EP Training has won a Prestige Award for 2026/27. The award recognises our professionalism, pass rates and learner experience across our Cat C, Cat C+E, ADR and Driver CPC training.

EP Training has been running for over 44 years. We train drivers across Surrey and the surrounding areas. This award reflects the work we put into every course, and it means a lot to have that work recognised by an independent panel.

What the award recognises

The Prestige Awards judge businesses on three things. Here is what each one means at EP Training.

CRITERION 01

Professionalism

How our instructors act, on the road and in the classroom, and how our office team handles enquiries, bookings and test dates.

CRITERION 02

Pass rates

Real results. What learners actually achieve, not just what a course promises on paper.

CRITERION 03

Learner experience

Clear communication and flexible scheduling, built around learners who are often working full-time while they train.

These are not new goals for us. We have worked to these standards for over 40 years — it just feels great to have them confirmed by someone outside the business.

What this means if you're considering HGV training

Thinking about training providers? An award like this can help you decide. It sits alongside reviews and recommendations from other people.

Prestige Award winner

Maybe you want a Class 2 licence. Maybe you want to upgrade to Class 1 with a C+E. Or maybe you need your ADR certificate, or your Driver CPC hours. Whatever you need, you train directly with us — a DVSA-recognised centre, not a broker.

Thank you

This award belongs to our instructors and office staff as much as it does to the business.

Thank you to every learner who has trained with us — and to everyone who left a review or told a friend about us. That's what this award really reflects.
