Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CDL-B Theory ELDT cost?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT is $20. If you also need CDL-A Theory ELDT and CDL-A Permit Prep (the 119-question DMV study tool), the CDL Complete Bundle is $45 and saves you $10 versus buying all three separately ($55 individual). That bundle includes both theory courses plus the permit prep — everything for a full Class A CDL pathway.
How long does it take to complete CDL-B Theory ELDT?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT completes in under 2 hours. You can finish it in one sitting and move on to scheduling your behind-the-wheel training with a local FMCSA-registered provider.
What does Colorado's CO DMV require for a Class B CDL?+
The Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles (CO DMV) requires you to complete FMCSA-approved ELDT before you sit for the CDL skills test. DLA Academy's CDL-B Theory ELDT fulfills that federal mandate. After completing the course, you'll need to pass the DMV knowledge test (the permit test) and then complete behind-the-wheel training at a separate FMCSA-registered provider before you can test for your Class B CDL.
Does DLA Academy submit my completion to FMCSA?+
Yes. When you complete CDL-B Theory ELDT with DLA Academy, your certificate is automatically submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry (TPR) within 24 hours. The Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles (CO DMV) will verify your ELDT completion by checking the TPR — you don't need to submit anything manually.
Who needs CDL-B Theory ELDT?+
Anyone getting a Class B CDL after February 7, 2022, needs FMCSA-approved ELDT. If you got your Class B CDL before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered and don't need retroactive ELDT. However, if you're upgrading to a Class A CDL or adding an endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, or School Bus), you'll need ELDT for that new credential, even if your original Class B is grandfathered.
