Sunter, June 29, 2024 - A total of 20 drivers have successfully undergone the certification process under the auspices of the National Professional Certification Agency (BNSP) and Logistics Insan Prima (LIP) represented by Johanes Kurniawan.

BNSP and LIP offer 10 certification schemes, including one for container freight transport drivers. The certification process involves several key stages, from document submission to competency testing, aiming to ensure that each driver possesses the skills, knowledge, and attitude necessary to operate safely and efficiently.

1. Document Submission: Every participant must fill out APL 01 and APL 02 documents. These documents must be completed and verified for completeness. 

2. Portfolio: Participants must complete additional documents such as a general B2 driver's license, ID card, CV, and a good work history to demonstrate their qualifications and experience. 

3. Practical Test: Drivers are tested on their driving skills, safety practices, and compliance with applicable requirements. 

4. Interview: Competency testing also includes oral interviews to assess drivers' knowledge and attitudes.

Assessment Criteria: 

1. Drivers must be at least 23 years old.
