We recently had the opportunity to teach another great 1-day truck theory course in the vibrant city of Leeuwarden. This unique course was filmed and offered participants an enriching experience. In this blog post, we’ll take a closer look at the course, its benefits, and why Leeuwarden was the perfect location for this educational event.
An engaging course:
Our instructor, known for his in-depth knowledge of and passion for truck theory, brought his expertise to Leeuwarden to give participants a thorough understanding of the subject. The course was carefully designed to cover all relevant truck-related topics and regulations, including road safety, securing cargo, technical aspects and more.
Straight from the course to the exam
After an intensive and enriching truck theory course in Leeuwarden, it was time for the next important chapter: the CBR exam. Immediately after the course, the participants prepared with energy and confidence to test their knowledge and understanding of truck regulations.
With their newly acquired knowledge still fresh in their minds, the participants were well prepared for the challenges the exam presented. They felt confident thanks to the thorough instructions and practical examples provided during the course.
Why Leeuwarden?
Leeuwarden, the capital of Friesland, is a great choice for truck drivers for several reasons. The city offers quiet roads, allowing drivers to travel in a relaxed environment without heavy traffic. Leeuwarden also has beautiful surroundings, with green landscapes and picturesque spots that create a pleasant working environment. The city has well-developed infrastructure, with well-maintained roads and plenty of amenities such as gas stations and parking areas. Truck drivers can easily access different parts of the city and travel efficiently thanks to its well-organized public transport system. Moreover, Leeuwarden is known for its hospitality and friendliness, making drivers feel welcome. With its pleasant working environment, beautiful nature, good infrastructure and welcoming atmosphere, Leeuwarden is an ideal location for truck drivers.

A course day at NuVrachtwagen starts early. We want to make the most of the day. You are expected at the course location early in the morning (you'll receive the exact time by email and text message). After around 5 hours of exam-focused lessons, the whole course group leaves for the CBR to take the exam. The instructor will meet you at the CBR and guide you there.
After taking the exam, you discuss it with the instructor. If you've passed, we'll celebrate with a nice photo for social media. If you haven't passed, you'll discuss with the instructor what you need to do to pass on your second attempt.
Good preparation is half the battle! We won't stop you from reading through the books beforehand. But in principle, you don't need to prepare for a course day at NuVrachtwagen. We teach you everything you need to know for every course.

Until recently, the truck theory exam was divided into RV1, V2C and V3C. As of 1 September 2022, these have been changed to “modules”. The division is as follows:
The first module (RVM1) is compulsory for everyone who wants to obtain a (small) truck driving licence. The topics covered in this module are traffic, vehicle technology, cargo and legislation (administration).
The second module (VM2-C) builds on the first module and is intended only for students who want to obtain their driving licence with code 95. This applies if you will be using your licence professionally (more than 12 hours per week). Topics covered in this module include vehicle knowledge, vehicle technology, electronic systems and securing cargo. To be admitted to this exam, you must have passed module 1.
The third and final module of the (small) truck driving course, VM3-C, like VM2, is intended for students who will use their licence professionally. This module focuses mainly on administration, legislation, safety, health and the various sectors.
