Getting your CDL in Minnesota means working with Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services (MN DVS). The federal FMCSA ELDT mandate kicked in February 7, 2022 — and DLA Academy is the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved provider. Individual courses run $20 each, bundles cut that cost further, and everything auto-submits to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.

Minnesota ELDT Pricing — Every Course, Every Bundle

Every individual FMCSA-approved ELDT course on DLA Academy is $20 flat in Minnesota — no discounts, no surge pricing, no surprise fees. Bundles save money when you're stacking endorsements:

Hazmat ELDT — $20 (H endorsement, theory only)
CDL-A Theory ELDT — $20 (BTW required separately at a local FMCSA-registered provider)
CDL-B Theory ELDT — $20 (BTW required separately)
School Bus ELDT — $20 (S endorsement)
Passenger ELDT — $20 (P endorsement)
CDL-A Permit Prep — $15 (DMV practice questions — not ELDT, paired study aid)
Hazmat + DMV Test Prep Bundle — $30 (Hazmat ELDT + Permit Prep, saves $5)
CDL Complete Bundle — $45 (CDL-A ELDT + CDL-B ELDT + CDL-A Permit Prep, saves $10)
3-Endorsement Bundle (H + P + S) — $50 (saves $10 vs. buying each separately)

The Bundle Math — Every Bundle Saves You Money

All three bundles are genuine discounts off buying the components individually. The math:

3-Endorsement Bundle ($50): Hazmat + Passenger + School Bus ELDT. Individual price: $20 × 3 = $60. Saves $10. Worth it if you're adding all three endorsements.
CDL Complete Bundle ($45): CDL-A Theory ELDT + CDL-B Theory ELDT + CDL-A Permit Prep. Individual price: $20 + $20 + $15 = $55. Saves $10. The full Class A journey — both theory courses for the skills test plus 119 DMV practice questions for the permit test.
Hazmat + DMV Test Prep ($30): Hazmat ELDT + CDL-A Permit Prep. Individual price: $20 + $15 = $35. Saves $5. Worth it if you're studying for both the Hazmat ELDT and the DMV knowledge test at once.

Whatever you pick, Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services (MN DVS) verifies your ELDT completion through the FMCSA Training Provider Registry — DLA Academy auto-submits within 24 hours of completion.

How DLA Academy Compares to Other ELDT Providers

Other FMCSA-approved ELDT providers typically charge $23–$75 per course. DLA Academy is consistently the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option — same regulatory coverage (Appendix A to Part 380), same auto-submission to the FMCSA TPR, same 49-state acceptance. The difference is the price tag and the user experience: under 2 hours, mobile-friendly, no hidden fees, no upsells during checkout.

What's the same at every approved provider: the curriculum (set by FMCSA), the registration with the federal TPR, and the legal weight of the completion. What's different: pricing, course length, and how aggressive the upsells are.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does ELDT cost in Minnesota?+

Individual ELDT courses are $20 each: CDL-A Theory, CDL-B Theory, Hazmat, School Bus, or Passenger. Bundles offer bigger savings — the CDL Complete Bundle (CDL-A + CDL-B Theory + Permit Prep) is $45 instead of $55, and the 3-Endorsement Bundle (Hazmat + Passenger + School Bus) is $50 instead of $60. The Hazmat + DMV Test Prep Bundle is $30 instead of $35. DLA Academy is the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option available.

What's included in DLA Academy's pricing?+

Your $20 (or bundle price) covers the FMCSA-approved ELDT course only. It does NOT include behind-the-wheel training (BTW), which you'll schedule separately with a local FMCSA-registered provider, DMV knowledge testing (covered by our separate $15 CDL-A Permit Prep study tool), or TSA Hazmat fingerprinting fees (if you're pursuing the H endorsement). BTW typically runs $500–$2,000 depending on your area — DLA focuses on the theory piece to keep costs low.

How do bundles save money?+

The CDL Complete Bundle ($45) bundles CDL-A Theory ELDT + CDL-B Theory ELDT + CDL-A Permit Prep ($15). Buying separately costs $20 + $20 + $15 = $55 — the bundle saves you $10. The 3-Endorsement Bundle ($50) covers Hazmat + Passenger + School Bus (normally $60, saves $10). The Hazmat + DMV Test Prep Bundle ($30) is Hazmat ELDT + Permit Prep (normally $35, saves $5). All three are genuine discounts — no hidden fees.

How long does it take to complete ELDT, and does that affect the price?+

Each individual ELDT course completes in under 2 hours. The time to completion doesn't change the price — you pay $20 flat per course or the bundle rate upfront. Once you finish, your completion is auto-submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours, and MN DVS can verify it immediately. No waiting, no extra charges.

Why is DLA Academy cheaper than other ELDT providers?+

Competitors typically charge $23–$75 per ELDT course. DLA Academy keeps costs down by running a streamlined, online-only operation with no BTW overhead. You get the same FMCSA-approved training at half the price. For Minnesota drivers, that's the difference between $20 and $50+ per course — real savings when you're adding multiple endorsements or classes.
