What is professional competence for goods transport?

Professional competence for goods transport (yrkeskunnande gods) is the competence required to become the transport manager on a commercial transport licence for goods transport. You demonstrate your competence by passing Trafikverket's knowledge test, which covers law, finance, technology and road safety.

Without a transport manager who has passed the test, the company cannot get a transport licence from the Swedish Transport Agency (Transportstyrelsen). The course prepares you for both parts of the test.
