Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does the CDL-A Theory ELDT cost?+

DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT is $20. It's the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option on the market. If you also need the CDL-A Permit Prep (119 DMV practice questions for the knowledge test), bundle both courses into our CDL Complete Bundle for $45 — that's CDL-A ELDT + CDL-B ELDT + CDL-A Permit Prep, saving you $10 vs. buying each separately.

How long does the CDL-A Theory ELDT take to complete?+

The entire course completes in under 2 hours. You can knock it out in one sitting or spread it across a few sessions — there's no timer. Once you finish, your completion is auto-submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.

What happens after I complete the ELDT in Kansas?+

Your completion is automatically submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry (TPR) within 24 hours. The Kansas Department of Revenue — Division of Vehicles verifies your ELDT by checking the TPR. You'll then be eligible to schedule your Class A CDL skills test with Kansas DOR.

Do I need ELDT if I already have a CDL from before February 2022?+

No. If your CDL was issued before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered and don't need ELDT to renew it. However, if you're upgrading from Class B to Class A, or if you're adding a new endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, School Bus), you must complete ELDT for that upgrade or endorsement — even if your original license was grandfathered.

What about behind-the-wheel training and the skills test?+

ELDT is theory only. After you complete DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT, you'll need to schedule behind-the-wheel training at a local FMCSA-registered provider in Kansas. Once you've finished both the theory (done) and the BTW (separate), you're ready to book your Class A CDL skills test through the Kansas Department of Revenue — Division of Vehicles.
