Getting a CDL in Montana means working with the Montana Motor Vehicle Division (MVD). The federal FMCSA ELDT mandate means you need to budget for online training before you hit the road. DLA Academy is the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option: individual courses run $20, and bundles save you $5 to $10. Here's the breakdown.

Montana ELDT Pricing — Every Course, Every Bundle

Every individual FMCSA-approved ELDT course on DLA Academy is $20 flat in Montana — 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, Montana Motor Vehicle Division (Montana MVD) 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 at DLA Academy?+

Individual ELDT courses are $20 each: CDL-A Theory ELDT, CDL-B Theory ELDT, Hazmat ELDT, School Bus ELDT, and Passenger ELDT. Bundles save money — the Hazmat + DMV Test Prep Bundle is $30 (saves $5), the CDL Complete Bundle is $45 (CDL-A, CDL-B, and Permit Prep — saves $10), and the 3-Endorsement Bundle is $50 (Hazmat, Passenger, School Bus — saves $10). DLA Academy is the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved provider; competitors typically charge $23–$75 per course.

What's included in the price, and what costs extra?+

DLA Academy's price covers FMCSA-approved online training only. It does NOT include behind-the-wheel (BTW) training — that's a separate step you'll arrange at a local FMCSA-registered provider in Montana. It also does NOT include the DMV knowledge test, the CDL skills test, or TSA Hazmat fingerprinting fees (if you're pursuing the H endorsement). The CDL-A Permit Prep ($15) is a separate DMV study tool, not part of the theory ELDT.

How much will I spend total to get my CDL in Montana?+

ELDT is just one piece. Budget: DLA Academy ELDT ($20–$50 depending on which course(s) you need), BTW training (varies by provider, typically $500–$1,500), CDL skills test fees (set by Montana MVD), and optionally CDL-A Permit Prep ($15) if you want 119 DMV practice questions before your knowledge test. If you're adding Hazmat, add TSA fingerprinting costs (processed through IDEMIA Universal Enroll). The ELDT piece is fixed and affordable; BTW and testing are the larger expense.

Should I buy individual courses or a bundle?+

Bundles save money if you need more than one course. If you're only adding Hazmat, the individual course is $20. But if you're going for Hazmat AND the Passenger endorsement, the 3-Endorsement Bundle ($50 for H+P+S) saves $10 vs buying each separately ($60). The CDL Complete Bundle ($45) is best if you need both CDL-A and CDL-B theory plus DMV test prep — that's a $10 savings vs the $55 cost of buying them individually.

Does DLA Academy's price match competitors?+

No — DLA Academy is cheaper. Most FMCSA-approved providers charge $23–$75 per course. DLA Academy charges $20 per individual ELDT course, flat rate. Even with bundles (which are genuine discounts), you're paying less than competitors' single-course pricing. For Montana drivers, DLA Academy is the lowest-cost FMCSA-approved option available.
