Utah — State-Specific Note

Utah CDLs are issued by Utah Driver License Division (Utah DLD).

Utah CDL Requirements — Quick Reference

To get any Commercial Driver's License in Utah you'll work through Utah Driver License Division (Utah DLD). Federal ELDT requirements apply across all 49 states — DLA Academy's online theory courses satisfy the ELDT mandate, and behind-the-wheel training (where required for CDL A or CDL B) must be completed locally at an FMCSA-registered BTW provider.

For Hazmat endorsements, Utah uses the standard IDEMIA TSA enrollment process — schedule your fingerprinting through Universal Enroll.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What ELDT courses does DLA Academy offer for Utah drivers?+
We offer five FMCSA-approved ELDT courses: CDL-A Theory ELDT, CDL-B Theory ELDT, Hazmat ELDT, Passenger ELDT, and School Bus ELDT. Each course is $20 and completes in under 2 hours. We also offer the CDL-A Permit Prep ($15) — a DMV practice-question study tool with 119 questions on general knowledge, air brakes, and combination vehicles. Bundles are available: the CDL Complete Bundle ($45) includes CDL-A ELDT, CDL-B ELDT, and Permit Prep (saves $10 vs. individual); the 3-Endorsement Bundle ($50) includes Hazmat, Passenger, and School Bus ELDT (saves $10 vs. individual); and the Hazmat + DMV Test Prep Bundle ($30) pairs Hazmat ELDT with Permit Prep (saves $5).
Who needs ELDT to get a CDL in Utah?+
Anyone applying for a CDL (Class A, B, or C) or a new endorsement (H, P, or S) after February 7, 2022 must complete FMCSA-approved ELDT. If you got your CDL before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered and don't need retroactive ELDT — but you still need ELDT if you're upgrading to a different class or adding a new endorsement. Contact the Utah DLD for questions about your specific situation.
What happens after I complete an ELDT course?+
Your completion is automatically submitted to the FMCSA Training Provider Registry (TPR) within 24 hours. The Utah DLD verifies your ELDT status by querying the TPR — you don't need to submit anything yourself. Once verified, you're eligible to apply for your Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP) or take the skills test.
Do I need BTW (behind-the-wheel training) in Utah?+
Yes. ELDT is the theory portion only. You must complete behind-the-wheel training separately at a local FMCSA-registered BTW provider before taking the skills test with the Utah DLD. DLA Academy does not provide BTW — we handle the online ELDT step. Your BTW provider will be a separate business.
How do I get started with DLA Academy?+
Choose the course or bundle you need, enroll online, and start immediately. You can complete your ELDT in under 2 hours. No scheduling, no waiting — just log in and finish at your own pace. Once done, your completion is auto-submitted to the TPR, and you can move forward with the Utah DLD.
