Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CDL-B Theory ELDT cost?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT is $20. That's the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option. If you also need CDL-A Theory ELDT and DMV permit prep, the CDL Complete Bundle is $45 (saves $10 vs. buying all three separately). Otherwise, each course is $20.
How long does it take to complete CDL-B Theory ELDT?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT completes in under 2 hours. You work through it online at your own pace, and your completion is auto-submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.
What are Kentucky's specific CDL-B requirements?+
Kentucky DDL requires ELDT completion before you take the Class B skills test. You'll also need to obtain your Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP) from Kentucky DDL and complete behind-the-wheel training separately at a local FMCSA-registered BTW provider. DLA Academy handles the online theory; BTW is your responsibility through a separate provider.
Is DLA Academy FMCSA-approved?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. When you complete CDL-B Theory ELDT with us, your completion is auto-submitted to the FMCSA TPR within 24 hours. Kentucky DDL verifies your ELDT status by checking the TPR — no separate submission needed.
Who needs ELDT, and who doesn't?+
Anyone getting a CDL for the first time, or upgrading to a higher class or new endorsement, needs FMCSA-approved ELDT. If you obtained your CDL before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered on that license — but you still need ELDT if you're adding an endorsement (H, P, or S) or upgrading to a different class.
