Class 5 Truck Licence (1 Day)

Completing our NZTA approved course will eliminate the learner licence period.

A Class 5 Licence allows you to drive a vehicle combination 25,000kg and over. Our course includes both a Class 5 Learners and a Class 5 Full licence - we manage the entire licencing process for you. The course fee includes theory training (unit standards 24809 and 17577), learner licence fees and a practical assessment.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

1. A deposit payment for individual bookings is required to secure your booking.

2. If you do not have your 5L truck learners licence you must register for the three-day course.
3. Please note: The transmission of the truck cannot be confirmed due to the nature of our courses and truck availability. We recommend that if you are unfamiliar with a manual transmission you take advantage of an additional lesson prior to assessment. Please contact us to discuss this.
4. Converting an overseas licence?: If you are converting an overseas licence and currently hold a Class 2, 4, or 5 licence with a supervisor condition, you can attend our course to work towards having this condition removed. To do so, you’ll need to apply for an exemption using the DL4 form available on the NZTA website. We recommend confirming with NZTA beforehand to ensure your endorsement will be accepted on completion of the course.

Please bring along your NZ driver licence - We need to verify the identity of students in attendance, please bring your NZ driver licence with you on the day of training.
