Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Who needs School Bus ELDT in Wisconsin?+
Anyone applying for a new School Bus (S) endorsement needs FMCSA-approved ELDT. If you already hold a CDL with an S endorsement issued before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered in. If you're upgrading or adding the endorsement after that date, WisDOT DMV requires proof of completion before you can take the S endorsement skills test.
How long does the School Bus ELDT take to complete?+
The entire course completes in under 2 hours. You can work through it at your own pace on any device with internet access. No live instructor required.
What does Wisconsin's DMV require for the S endorsement?+
WisDOT DMV requires you to complete FMCSA-approved ELDT, pass the School Bus knowledge test, and pass the skills test with a WisDOT DMV examiner. DLA's School Bus ELDT covers the federally-mandated topics needed for the knowledge test. You'll still take your knowledge and skills tests through WisDOT DMV at a local driver license office.
How much does the School Bus ELDT cost?+
The School Bus ELDT is $20. That's the lowest price available for FMCSA-approved training — many competitors charge $23 to $75 for the same course. If you need multiple endorsements, check out the 3-Endorsement Bundle (Hazmat + Passenger + School Bus) for $50 and save $10.
Is DLA's School Bus ELDT actually FMCSA-approved?+
Yes. DLA Academy is listed on the FMCSA Training Provider Registry. When you complete the School Bus ELDT, your completion is auto-submitted to the Registry within 24 hours — no manual paperwork needed. You can share the confirmation with WisDOT DMV or they can verify it directly.
