Train to become a truck driver with trailer

Today, there is a great need for trained truck drivers in the transport sector, and this will increase in the future. Over the next ten years, it is estimated that the country's hauliers will need to employ nearly 50,000 new drivers. Therefore, if you are interested in training to drive a heavy goods vehicle, you are needed!

At Jarla Trafikskola we are proud to offer Komvux courses at our traffic school in Älvsjö. Take the chance and become part of an industry with great opportunities for employment directly after your training. You can submit your application here. When you apply, make sure you have a valid driving licence. You apply for a driving licence from the Swedish Transport Agency.

The four parts of the training

The course provides you with a basic knowledge of various transport vehicles and their engines. You will learn to drive both trucks and lorries and to load and unload different types of goods. The training consists of four parts:

  • Vocational traffic-vux: 300 points
  • Goods transport: 200 points
  • Goods handling-vux: 100 points
  • Vehicle combinations for freight transport: 200 points

In total, the programme comprises 800 credits. The length of the training varies from person to person and depends on how much support you need to achieve your goals. Usually the training lasts about 30 weeks.

How do I apply to train for the CE driving licence?

For those who already have a C licence, there is the possibility of completing a professional driver training course for lorries with heavy trailers. The aim of the training is to provide you with the knowledge you need to become a skilled truck driver who can handle goods safely on the road. Working as a lorry driver is an independent profession that places high demands on your ability to plan and organise your tasks. At the same time, it is a service profession that involves a lot of customer contact when loading and unloading goods.
