Welcome to Bassett's Transport Training

Bassett’s Transport Training is the driver training division of R G Bassett & Sons Ltd, a family business, founded in 1897, which prides itself on the delivery of quality transport services to our valued clients.

For over 35 years, Bassett’s Transport Training has delivered an unparalleled service for driver training and is widely regarded as the premier transport training organisation within Staffordshire and the wider area. Operating from our base in Tittensor in rural Staffordshire, we are one of only a small number of training organisations nationally to be accredited to ISO 9001:2015. As a result, the quality of our courses across Stoke is second-to-none.

Unlike many training providers, training for all of our on-road courses is conducted on one instructor to one trainee basis giving you the best possible outcome from your course. Whether you require a licence to drive a 44-tonne artic or something a little smaller, our experienced instructors will provide you with the skills you need to achieve your goal.
