Setting up an Approved Tachograph Centre (ATC)
Who can work for you
You can only employ ‘nominated technicians’ to carry out work at an Approved Tachograph Centre (ATC). They must be skilled technicians with experience working on tachographs.
If they need to road test vehicles, they must also have a driving licence for the relevant categories of vehicles they’re testing.
They’ll also need to hold a ‘certificate of competence’ for each class of tachograph (digital, analogue or both) that they want to work on.
They’ll get this only after they’ve successfully completed a DVSA-approved training course. You’ll find details in the ATC manual.
