QQI stands for Quality and Qualifications Ireland - the body that regulates courses for further education and training and higher education in Ireland.

The TM CPC Certificate is a PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATION ONLY and DOES NOT have any QQI / NFQ / FETAC level associated to it. 

The following sample papers have been compiled by our Chief Examiner and are provided solely for the purpose of illustrating how those planning to sit a TM CPC exam can expect to be assessed.

Candidates are required to complete two papers on exam day, Paper one is taken in the morning and Paper two in the afternoon.

STRUCTURE OF THE EXAM

Paper One contains 40 Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQ’s) which carry 10 marks each. The MCQ’s have a question followed by up to 4 optional answers, from which candidates should pick just one. There is only one correct answer for these questions. 

Answers to Paper One questions must be written in the space provided after each question inside the question booklet. 

Paper Two is a comprehensive case study with associated questions. These questions should be answered in the answer book provided.    

Both question and answer booklet must be handed back to the invigilator beofre departing the exam room. 

Whether practicing with a sample paper or sitting the live exam, candidates are encouraged to carefully read and follow the Instructions set-out on the cover page of each paper or section introduction.

Candidates should note that these papers are for illustrative purposes only, none of these questions in either of these two papers would normally appear in any of the live exams.

___________________________________________

Most TM CPC training providers include some useful advice and or coaching on how to tackle the exam papers. Some even include a mock exam which can be helpful to many students. However, it is important to study the course material, become familiar with and most importantly to understand it, and its application in the real world of transport management. Our experience is that those who attend the full course, undertake at least the minimum additional home study recommendations generally do very well in the real exam.

The CILT contacts each registered candidate before the exam date and provides useful information to help candidates prepare for the real exam. Take time to carefully study the advice and if you have any questions raise them with your training provider.

Best of luck with your studies and exam preparation.

A Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC) in Road Transport Operations Management is a qualification that allows the holder to act as transport manager in a road transport undertaking. It is not a licence to operate in the road transport sector. Every road transport undertaking must hold an Operator Licence in order to operate for hire or reward, and one of the conditions of the licence is that the operator must have a qualified transport manager, i.e. a person who holds a CPC. 

Operator Licences are issued by Road Transport Operator Licensing Unit. Certificates of Professional Competence are issued by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport.

No.  Driver CPC was introduced by EU regulation to set and maintain high standards of road safety, health and safety and driving among professional drivers of buses and trucks and is administered by the Road Safety Authority.  It is not related to the CPC in Road Transport Management administered by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT).

This qualification covers Irish and EU requirements for professional competence. It is not valid outside of the EU.

To ensure that there are no barriers that would prevent an operator from plying their trade, for example, in Ireland, France or the rest of the EU, the EU Commission proposed that all transport operators should operate under a common system of rules and that each operator would do the same course across Europe. This course, therefore, seeks to promote awareness of what is required to effectively and continuously manage a transport business anywhere in the European Union.
