Who is it for?

For those candidates who only need to take the relevant CILT Transport Manager CPC exams, whether they have undertaken home study or need to resit.

Some may feel that time to attend a training course may be too much at a premium, so it is possible to prepare for the exam in your own time by use of our Home Study Packs which are available for the Passenger Transport Manager CPC exams.

What do the exams involve?

The CILT(UK) Level 3 Certificate of Professional Competence for Transport Managers consists of two examinations, in the following format:

Paper 1 - Multi Format Response paper

• 2-hour ‘closed book’ exam, consisting of 40 questions each worth 1 mark

• Multi Format Response papers involve questions from across the entire CPC syllabus

• This exam has a 70% pass mark

• Candidates may take a calculator and a dictionary into this exam, but no other materials

Paper 2 - Case Study Assessment paper
