Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the School Bus ELDT course cost?+

The School Bus ELDT course completes in under 2 hours. You can finish it online whenever it fits your schedule.
What are Mississippi's requirements for the School Bus endorsement?+
The Mississippi Department of Public Safety (MS DPS) requires you to complete FMCSA-approved ELDT, pass the written knowledge test, and pass the skills test before issuing the S endorsement. DLA Academy covers the ELDT requirement; you'll take the written and skills tests through MS DPS.
Is the School Bus ELDT FMCSA-approved and auto-submitted to the registry?+
Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. Your completion is automatically submitted to the TPR within 24 hours, so MS DPS can verify it instantly when you apply for your endorsement.
Who needs School Bus ELDT?+
Anyone applying for a new School Bus (S) endorsement needs FMCSA-approved ELDT. If you obtained your CDL before February 7, 2022, you don't need retroactive ELDT for that original license — but you still need ELDT for any new endorsement you add. Anyone applying after February 7, 2022 needs ELDT for all endorsements.
