Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What does CDL-B Theory ELDT cover?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT covers the federal ELDT curriculum required for Class B commercial vehicles — everything from vehicle inspection and basic control to hazard perception and safety protocols. It's the online theory component; behind-the-wheel training (BTW) must be completed separately at a local FMCSA-registered provider. The course completes in under 2 hours.
How much does CDL-B Theory ELDT cost?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT is $20. If you're also pursuing a Class A CDL, the CDL Complete Bundle ($45) includes CDL-A Theory ELDT, CDL-B Theory ELDT, and CDL-A Permit Prep (119 DMV practice questions) — that's a $10 savings vs. buying each separately. DLA Academy is the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option.
How long does it take to complete?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT completes in under 2 hours. You work at your own pace, so you can finish in a single session or spread it across a few sittings. Once you finish, your completion certificate is auto-submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.
Do I need ELDT if my CDL was issued before February 7, 2022?+
If your Class B CDL was issued before February 7, 2022, you are grandfathered and do not need retroactive ELDT. However, if you upgrade to a Class A or add a new endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, School Bus), you will need ELDT for that upgrade or endorsement. The ND DOT and FMCSA treat license classes and endorsements separately.
Is DLA Academy FMCSA-approved, and will my completion be recognized?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. Your CDL-B Theory ELDT completion is auto-submitted to the TPR within 24 hours. The ND DOT verifies your ELDT by querying the TPR when you apply for your CDL skills test. You do not need to manually submit proof — it's automatic.
