What is a CBT course?

Compulsory Basic Training or ‘CBT’ is a one day course which gives motorcycle training to a nationally recognised standard.

All applicants must complete and pass a CBT course before a moped can be issued.

When searching for a Compulsory Basic training Company (CBT trainer) refer to companies registered on the DVSA motorcycle website CBT motorcycle and moped training: Who needs to take training – GOV.UK for information, details and to find a trainer in the local area.

Please read our W2W eligibility criteria and W2W moped Terms and Conditions  before you apply. If you are eligible, you will be asked to completed the terms and conditions document as part of the application process.

All applicants must complete and pass a CBT course before a moped is issued.  This is not funded by Wheels to Work. Once your application has been successful, you will be advised to apply for the CBT course. It is your responsibility to book and pay for the CBT course.

Precheck Statement

Once an application is received, we have a process of conducting wider checks as part of the application process. To do this we work closely with other council departments eg, health & safety, insurance, finance, safer neighbourhoods. We also work closely with Humberside Police, Humberside Fire Service, Department of Work & Pensions and various agencies.

Applications for a moped undergo a driving licence check from DVLA using the code provided through the application form. The category ‘A’ is required to ride our electric mopeds. The details provided by yourself on the application form concerning work status are checked with the employer/potential employer or agency to make sure what we have is the correct details. Once these checks are completed a home security check will need completing at a pre-arranged day and time, this is to check safety and security for storage and charging an electric bike. Wheels2Work staff undertake this check with you present at the address the bike is to be stored at. You will then be informed if you are accepted onto the scheme, if not you will be told why.
