Getting a CDL in Delaware starts with the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles (DE DMV). Federal law requires FMCSA-approved Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) before you can test for most CDL endorsements. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and recognized by the DE DMV — we deliver the theory training you need, fast and affordable, with auto-submission to the federal Training Provider Registry within 24 hours of completion.

Delaware CDL Requirements — Quick Reference

To get any Commercial Driver's License in Delaware you'll work through Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles (DE DMV). Federal ELDT requirements apply across all 49 states — DLA Academy's online theory courses satisfy the ELDT mandate, and behind-the-wheel training (where required for CDL A or CDL B) must be completed locally at an FMCSA-registered BTW provider.

For Hazmat endorsements, Delaware uses the standard IDEMIA TSA enrollment process — schedule your fingerprinting through Universal Enroll.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need ELDT if I already have a CDL?+
If you got your CDL before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered — no retroactive ELDT required. However, if you're upgrading your CDL class (e.g., B to A) or adding a new endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, School Bus), you'll need the relevant FMCSA-approved ELDT course(s) before you can test. The DE DMV will check your ELDT status against the federal Training Provider Registry.
How long does it take to complete an ELDT course?+
Each individual ELDT course completes in under 2 hours. You can work at your own pace — start and stop as needed. Once you finish, your completion is auto-submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours, and the DE DMV can verify it immediately.
What's the cost of DLA Academy ELDT courses?+
Individual ELDT courses (CDL-A Theory, CDL-B Theory, Hazmat, Passenger, School Bus) are $20 each. The CDL-A Permit Prep (DMV practice questions) is $15. We also offer bundles: CDL Complete ($45 for both CDL theory + permit prep, saves $10), 3-Endorsement ($50 for H+P+S, saves $10), and Hazmat + Permit Prep ($30, saves $5). We're the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option.
Is DLA Academy accepted by the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the federal Training Provider Registry. The DE DMV recognizes FMCSA-approved ELDT and verifies completion through the Registry. Your certificate is auto-submitted within 24 hours of finishing the course — no manual upload or wait required.
Do I still need behind-the-wheel (BTW) training?+
Yes. DLA Academy provides the online ELDT theory; BTW is a required separate step completed at a local FMCSA-registered provider. You can start BTW once your ELDT is verified by the DE DMV. The cost and scheduling of BTW depend on the local training provider you choose.
