Getting your CDL in Tennessee means training through the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security (TN DOS). DLA Academy offers FMCSA-approved ELDT courses at the lowest price in the market — individual courses start at just $20, and bundles range from $30 to $50. Here's what you'll actually pay to get compliant with the federal ELDT mandate.

Whatever you pick, Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security (TN DOS) verifies your ELDT completion through the FMCSA Training Provider Registry — DLA Academy auto-submits within 24 hours of completion.

How DLA Academy Compares to Other ELDT Providers

Other FMCSA-approved ELDT providers typically charge $23–$75 per course. DLA Academy is consistently the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option — same regulatory coverage (Appendix A to Part 380), same auto-submission to the FMCSA TPR, same 49-state acceptance. The difference is the price tag and the user experience: under 2 hours, mobile-friendly, no hidden fees, no upsells during checkout.

What's the same at every approved provider: the curriculum (set by FMCSA), the registration with the federal TPR, and the legal weight of the completion. What's different: pricing, course length, and how aggressive the upsells are.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does each ELDT course cost?+
Individual ELDT courses (Hazmat, CDL-A Theory, CDL-B Theory, School Bus, and Passenger) are $20 each. That's the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option — competitors typically charge $23 to $75 per course. If you need multiple endorsements or both CDL-A and CDL-B theory, bundles save you money: the 3-Endorsement Bundle (Hazmat, Passenger, School Bus) is $50 instead of $60, and the CDL Complete Bundle (CDL-A Theory, CDL-B Theory, plus CDL-A Permit Prep) is $45 instead of $55.
What about the CDL-A Permit Prep — is that ELDT?+
No. The CDL-A Permit Prep ($15) is a DMV practice-question study tool, not FMCSA-approved ELDT. It's a separate product that covers 119 questions on general knowledge, air brakes, and combination vehicles — the topics on Tennessee's CLP knowledge test. You need both: CDL-A Theory ELDT ($20) to meet the federal mandate, and Permit Prep ($15) to study for the DMV test. Or buy the CDL Complete Bundle ($45) and get all three: CDL-A ELDT, CDL-B ELDT, and Permit Prep — that saves $10 vs. buying separately.
What does DLA's price NOT include?+
DLA's ELDT course price covers online theory training and auto-submission to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry only. It does NOT include behind-the-wheel (BTW) training — you'll schedule that separately at a local FMCSA-registered provider at your own cost. It also does NOT include the CDL skills test, the DMV permit test, TSA Hazmat fingerprinting fees (if applicable), or your state license fee. Budget those separately.
How much does a full CDL cost from start to finish?+
DLA Academy's part is $20 for CDL-A Theory ELDT (or $45 for the CDL Complete Bundle including CDL-B Theory and Permit Prep). But the full CDL journey includes: ELDT course ($20–$45), CDL-A Permit Prep if not bundled ($15), behind-the-wheel training at a local provider ($500–$5,000+ depending on the school), Tennessee's CDL skills test fee, Tennessee's CDL license fee, and any endorsement fees (TSA Hazmat fingerprinting is an IDEMIA enrollment cost, typically $85–$100). DLA keeps your mandatory federal training cost low; the rest depends on local providers and state fees.
Is DLA's price the same for everyone in Tennessee?+
Yes. All ELDT courses are $20 each, all bundles have the fixed prices listed, and there are no region-specific rates, fleet discounts, or promotional codes. The price is the price — the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option available. You complete the course in under 2 hours, it auto-submits to FMCSA within 24 hours, and TN DOS verifies it through the Training Provider Registry when you apply for your CDL.
