Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Passenger ELDT course?+
It's the FMCSA-mandated online training required before testing for your P endorsement with the VT DMV. The course covers passenger-vehicle regulations, safety, and operational procedures. It is theory only — you still need behind-the-wheel training at a local provider before your VT DMV skills test.
How much does it cost?+
The Passenger ELDT is $20. That's the lowest price for FMCSA-approved Passenger training. If you need Hazmat and School Bus ELDT as well, the 3-Endorsement Bundle (Hazmat + Passenger + School Bus) is $50 and saves $10 compared to buying all three separately.
How long does it take to complete?+
Under 2 hours. You can finish in one sitting on a desktop or mobile device. Once you complete it, DLA Academy auto-submits your completion to FMCSA's Training Provider Registry (TPR) within 24 hours.
Is this course approved by Vermont and FMCSA?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. Your completion is automatically submitted to TPR within 24 hours. You'll receive a certificate and can present your TPR record to the VT DMV when you're ready to test. The course is accepted in 49 states.
Do I need Passenger ELDT if I already have a CDL?+
If your CDL was issued before February 7, 2022, you are grandfathered and do not need ELDT for any endorsement. If you're upgrading your license or adding a new endorsement after that date, you must complete the relevant FMCSA-approved ELDT course. Check with the VT DMV if you're unsure of your grandfathering status.
