What It Costs and Where to Start in New Hampshire

Every FMCSA-approved ELDT theory course is $20, online, and finished in under 2 hours. Completion is filed to the federal Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.

Not sure which one?

  • I already have a CDL and want to add an endorsement — you only need the endorsement course: Hazmat, Passenger, or School Bus, $20 each. Skip CDL-A and CDL-B entirely.
  • I'm brand new and have no CDL — start with CDL-A or CDL-B theory, then complete behind-the-wheel training locally. Theory alone does not get you licensed.
  • I want all three endorsements — the 3-endorsement bundle is $50 instead of $60 separately.
  • What's the cheapest way to do everything? — bundles are the floor: $50 for H+P+S, or $30 for either CDL theory course paired with permit prep. Adding Hazmat all-in, including the federal TSA background check and your state's endorsement fee, typically runs $110–$150.
  • Tanker (N) or Doubles/Triples (T)? — neither has an ELDT requirement. The federal rule covers Class A, Class B, the B-to-A upgrade, and Hazmat, Passenger and School Bus only. Both are knowledge-test only at your state DMV: Tanker Test Prep — $15, or Hazmat & Tanker Complete — $45 if you need the Hazmat ELDT too.
Adding a Class A Commercial Driver's License in New Hampshire? You'll need to work through the New Hampshire Division of Motor Vehicles (NH DMV). Federal law requires FMCSA-approved Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) before you can take the CDL-A skills test. DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT covers all the theory required — and it's the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option at $20.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the cost of CDL-A Theory ELDT in New Hampshire?+
DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT is $20 — the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option. Other providers charge $23–$75 for the same course. If you also need to study for the CDL permit test, the CDL A ELDT + Permit Prep Bundle ($30) bundles CDL-A Theory ELDT and the CDL Permit Practice Test together and saves you $5 vs. buying each separately ($35 individual).
How long does CDL-A Theory ELDT take to complete?+
DLA Academy's CDL-A Theory ELDT completes in under 2 hours. You can work through it on your own schedule, and once you finish, we auto-submit your completion to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry (TPR) within 24 hours.
Do I need behind-the-wheel training after ELDT?+
Yes. DLA Academy covers the online theory required by federal law. Behind-the-wheel (BTW) training is a separate step and must be completed at a local FMCSA-registered provider in New Hampshire. You'll coordinate your BTW schedule with that provider independently. ELDT and BTW are both mandatory before the NH DMV will let you take the CDL-A skills test.
How does FMCSA approval and TPR submission work?+
DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. When you complete CDL-A Theory ELDT, we automatically submit your certificate to the FMCSA TPR within 24 hours. The NH DMV then verifies your ELDT completion by checking the TPR — they do not receive a direct submission from us. Your completion is live in the system before you even schedule the skills test.
Who needs ELDT for a CDL-A in New Hampshire?+
If you obtained your CDL-A before February 7, 2022, you are grandfathered and do not need to retake ELDT for that license. However, if you are applying for a new Class A CDL after that date, or upgrading from a Class B to Class A, you must complete FMCSA-approved ELDT before taking the skills test. The NH DMV enforces this requirement.
