Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What does CDL-B Theory ELDT cover?+
The CDL-B Theory ELDT covers federal safety regulations, vehicle inspection, safe driving practices, and hazard perception specific to Class B commercial vehicles (straight trucks over 26,001 lbs, but not tractor-trailers). It does not include behind-the-wheel training — that's a separate step you'll complete locally. After finishing DLA's theory course, you're ready to schedule your CDL-B skills test with the Idaho DMV.
How much does DLA Academy's CDL-B Theory ELDT cost?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT is $20. If you're also working toward a Class A CDL, consider the CDL Complete Bundle ($45), which includes both CDL-A Theory ELDT and CDL-B Theory ELDT plus CDL-A Permit Prep (119 DMV practice questions) — that saves you $10 vs. buying each course separately.
How long does it take to complete?+
The CDL-B Theory ELDT completes in under 2 hours. You can finish it in one sitting or spread it across a few days — the course is yours to access on your schedule.
Is the course FMCSA-approved and will it be submitted to Idaho?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. When you finish, your completion is auto-submitted to FMCSA within 24 hours. The Idaho DMV (Idaho Transportation Department — Division of Motor Vehicles) verifies your ELDT completion through the federal TPR database — no separate submission to Idaho is needed.
Do I need ELDT if I already have a CDL, or if I'm upgrading from Class B to Class A?+
If you earned your CDL before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered and don't need ELDT for your existing license. However, if you're upgrading from Class B to Class A, or adding a new endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, School Bus), you must complete the corresponding ELDT course — grandfathering doesn't cover upgrades or new endorsements. Contact the Idaho DMV if you're unsure whether you qualify.
