Webinars

Keeping up to date with industry regulations can involve a lot of legwork. At Chartwise UK, we understand that your day is full enough without you having to scour trade magazines and government websites for the latest updates to road transport best practices. That’s why we have created a series of webinars covering each area of fleet management; from Drivers Hours regulations and Earned Recognition to Defect Classifications and the OCRS.

Our webinars are designed to cut a clear path through the jungle of legal-speak that the industry can sometimes resemble; they provide an overview of all aspects of road transport, in English plain enough to digest with your coffee and biscuits.

Here we cover all of the features essential to comprehensive, legal new driver inductions. 

Understanding your OCRS

In this webinar we cover all the bases; letting you know exactly if you have a score, and how you can find it. We also provide an explanation of the points system used in compiling your score.

By covering the sections that most commonly baffle new and experienced drivers alike, we endeavour to make the snake-pit that ADR can sometimes resemble easier to pass through, and reconstruct the terminology in plain English. 

Defect Classification

Providing a detailed overview of how to recognize and report defects...

Many drivers are unsure as to how long their daily walk-around checks ought to last. Many drivers, also, are shaky how and when to report defects; some report too many defects, others don’t report enough. We go over what exactly a (safety-critical) defect is, and how precisely you should carry out your walk-around checks.
