What does CDL-B Theory ELDT cost?+

If you're also planning to get a Class A CDL or need permit-prep practice questions, the CDL Complete Bundle is $45 — it includes CDL-A Theory ELDT, CDL-B Theory ELDT, and CDL-A Permit Prep (119 DMV questions), saving you $10 vs. buying each separately ($20 + $20 + $15 = $55 individually).
How long does the course take?+
CDL-B Theory ELDT completes in under 2 hours. You can finish it in one sitting or split it across a couple of sessions. Once you complete it, DLA Academy auto-submits your record to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry within 24 hours.
What does Ohio BMV need from me?+
After completing CDL-B Theory ELDT with DLA Academy, the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (Ohio BMV) verifies your training record by checking the FMCSA Training Provider Registry. You don't need to manually submit anything to Ohio BMV — DLA handles the federal submission. Then you'll schedule your Class B skills test directly with Ohio BMV.
Is this course FMCSA-approved?+
Yes. DLA Academy is an FMCSA-approved Training Provider and holds full authority to deliver Entry-Level Driver Training.

Do I need ELDT if I already have a CDL?+
If your CDL was issued before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered and don't need ELDT to keep it. However, if you're upgrading to a new class (like adding Class B), you must complete the corresponding ELDT course for that class. Drivers with CDLs issued after February 7, 2022 need ELDT for any class or endorsement they add.
