Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) Theory is the first step toward earning a Commercial Driver License (CDL). This self-paced online course meets Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) requirements and provides the foundational knowledge needed for safe commercial vehicle operation. Students must successfully complete ELDT Theory before beginning hands-on Behind-the-Wheel training. The course is designed to prepare future drivers for obtaining their Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP) and advancing to CDL skills training.
