Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the Nevada CDL-A Theory ELDT cost?+
DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT is $20 — the lowest price for an FMCSA-approved course. If you're planning to get both Class A and Class B certifications, the CDL Complete Bundle is $45 (includes CDL-A Theory ELDT, CDL-B Theory ELDT, and the 119-question CDL-A Permit Prep study tool). That saves you $10 vs. buying each course individually. Other providers typically charge $23–$75 for a single course.
How long does it take to complete the CDL-A Theory ELDT?+
The course completes in under 2 hours. You can finish it in a single sitting, and your completion certificate is available immediately upon finishing. Once you're done, DLA Academy automatically submits your record to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.
What does Nevada's NV DMV require for a Class A CDL?+
The NV DMV requires you to complete an FMCSA-approved ELDT course (like DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT) before you sit for the Class A skills test. You'll also need to pass the CDL knowledge tests (general knowledge, air brakes, and combination vehicles) at the DMV office — the CDL-A Permit Prep study tool ($15) covers all three topics and pairs well with the theory course. Behind-the-wheel training is a separate step; you'll need to schedule that with a local FMCSA-registered BTW provider.
Is DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT FMCSA-approved?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the official Training Provider Registry. Once you complete the CDL-A Theory ELDT, we automatically submit your record to the FMCSA TPR within 24 hours. The NV DMV verifies your ELDT completion by checking the federal registry — you don't need to manually submit anything to the state.
Do I need ELDT if I already have an older CDL or a CDL from another state?+
If your Class A CDL was issued before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered and don't need ELDT for that license class. However, if you're upgrading to a higher class (e.g., from Class B to Class A), or adding a new endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, or School Bus), you'll need ELDT for the upgrade or endorsement regardless of when your original license was issued. Check with the NV DMV if you're unsure whether your situation requires ELDT.
