DVSA Earned Recognition.

Meet your training requirements.

DVSA Earned Recognition requires Operators to evidence consistent, ongoing driver development. The Professional Development Plan (PDP) delivers the training, tracks completion and stores the evidence - giving you everything you need for your audit, automatically.

What your auditor needs to see

DVSA Earned Recognition recognises Operators who consistently meet driver and vehicle standards, and are less likely to be stopped for roadside inspections as a result.

You are required to deliver regular Toolbox Talks at a consistent standard, maintain accurate training records and evidence that development is ongoing. It’s not a one-off requirement – the evidence needs to be there every time the audit comes around.

What Earned Recognition means for your business

Earned Recognition isn’t just a compliance status. It signals to the DVSA, your clients and your industry that your business consistently meets the standards expected of a responsible Fleet Operator.

Fewer roadside inspections – Operators with Earned Recognition are less likely to be stopped, reducing disruption to operations and schedules
Regulatory confidence – a recognised accreditation that demonstrates your business is being run to the standard the DVSA expects
Audit readiness – with the right system in place, your evidence is always current and accessible when your audit comes around
Demonstrating duty of care – documented, ongoing driver development shows you are taking your responsibilities to your drivers and the public seriously

The Professional Development Plan gives you the structure and evidence to achieve and maintain Earned Recognition.

Everything you need. Built into the PDP

The Professional Development Plan delivers ongoing driver development across the topics required for Earned Recognition, and tracks everything automatically. When your audit comes around, you open the dashboard and the evidence is already there.
