What are Wisconsin's CDL-B requirements?+

WisDOT DMV requires FMCSA-approved ELDT completion before you sit for the Class B skills test. You'll need a valid Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP) first, which means passing the DMV's knowledge test. After ELDT completion and with your CLP in hand, you schedule the skills test at an approved Wisconsin testing facility. Behind-the-wheel training must be completed at a separate FMCSA-registered provider before the skills test.

Is DLA Academy FMCSA-approved and will you submit my completion to the state?+

Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. Your completion is automatically submitted to FMCSA TPR within 24 hours — WisDOT DMV verifies your ELDT status by querying the TPR database. You don't need to submit anything yourself.

Do I need ELDT if I already have a CDL?+

If you held a valid CDL before February 7, 2022, you're grandfathered and don't need ELDT for your existing license. But if you're upgrading to Class A or adding a new endorsement (Hazmat, Passenger, or School Bus), you still need ELDT for that upgrade or endorsement. Drivers applying for a CDL for the first time after Feb 7, 2022 always need ELDT.
