CBT stands for Compulsory Basic Training.

Compulsory basic training (CBT) is a course you have to take before you ride a moped or motorcycle on the road in the UK.

The CBT licence lasts for 2 years. However, if you have a full UK car licence and only ride a moped then it lasts for as long as your licence.

To get a CBT Licence you must pass the Compulsory basic training test. You can apply for that at the Official UK Government Website.

You must complete a CBT course and hold a valid CBT Certificate before you can ride on the public road.

To take a CBT course you need a provisional licence in the relevant category.

A CBT test tends to cost between £130 to £170, depending on the instructor. 

Generally, a CBT training course is approximately 6-8 hours long, however this can vary depending on the level of experience and additional assistance you may require.
