Partnering with Local Councils
Driver Connect is designed to support licensing authorities in elevating the professional standards of the local transport network, without requiring council funding.
What We Are Looking For
We are not seeking financial support. Instead, we are looking to partner with councils to establish a recognized standard of excellence for taxi, private hire, and delivery drivers.
Official Endorsement
Recognize Driver Connect as an approved training provider for soft skills and customer service.
Mandatory Remedial Training
Require drivers who receive complaints regarding behavior or communication to complete this course.
Continuous Professional Development
Recommend the course to all new and renewing drivers as a valuable CPD tool.
Benefits to the Council
Reduced Complaints
Proactive training lowers the volume of passenger complaints requiring council investigation.
Enhanced Public Trust
Demonstrate a commitment to safe, accessible, and professional local transport.
Zero Cost Implementation
The cost of the course (£49) is borne by the driver, providing a free regulatory tool for the council.
Discuss Integration with Your Licensing Framework
We welcome the opportunity to provide licensing managers with full access to the course materials for review.
