Who needs it: anyone getting a Class A CDL for the first time. What it gets you: the Class A commercial learner permit (CLP) knowledge test at the DMV.
The federal theory course every new Class A driver must complete before the DMV will let you test for your permit. Covers the 30 federal topics: basic operation, safe operating procedures, advanced operating practices, vehicle systems and malfunctions, and non-driving activities.
Yes. Under 49 CFR Part 380 you must complete ELDT theory before the DMV will administer the Class A knowledge test, and you need the permit before behind-the-wheel training can count. Most Nixon students knock the theory out online the same week they call us.
Yes. Theory and behind-the-wheel are separate ELDT records. Your theory provider files the theory record; your behind-the-wheel provider files the range and road record. Both must be on the registry before your DMV skills test.
Most drivers finish in two to three hours. There is no seat-time minimum under the federal rule; you move on when you pass each section.
Theory gets you the permit. Our trucks and instructors in Pomona get you the license. Standard is $2,000 for 15 hours with the DMV test trip included, $300 down.
