Getting a Class B CDL in Florida means working through the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV). The federal FMCSA ELDT mandate took effect February 7, 2022 — if you're new to commercial driving or upgrading to Class B, you'll need to complete FMCSA-approved online theory training before you can take the skills test. DLA Academy's CDL-B Theory ELDT covers exactly what FMCSA requires, is listed on the Training Provider Registry, and costs just $20.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CDL-B Theory ELDT cost?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT is $20. If you're also going after a Class A CDL or need DMV permit prep, the CDL Complete Bundle ($45) includes CDL-A Theory ELDT, CDL-B Theory ELDT, and CDL-A Permit Prep (119 DMV practice questions) — that saves you $10 vs. buying each separately.
How long does the course take to complete?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT completes in under 2 hours. You can finish it in one sitting, and your completion is auto-submitted to FMCSA within 24 hours.
Does DLA Academy provide behind-the-wheel training?+
No. DLA Academy provides the theory step only. After you finish ELDT and get your Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP) from FLHSMV, you'll arrange behind-the-wheel training separately at a local FMCSA-registered BTW provider. Many driving schools offer this service — ask FLHSMV or search for BTW providers in your area.
Is DLA Academy FMCSA-approved, and does it auto-submit to Florida?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. When you complete the course, your record is automatically submitted to FMCSA within 24 hours. FLHSMV verifies your ELDT completion by querying the federal registry — you don't submit anything separately to FLHSMV.
Do I need ELDT if I already have a CDL or am upgrading my license class?+
If you hold a CDL issued before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered — no ELDT needed for that license. However, if you're upgrading to a new class (like adding Class B to an existing Class C CDL), ELDT is still required. Same rule applies if you're adding an endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, or School Bus) — you'll need the endorsement-specific ELDT course.
