Who needs it: any CDL holder adding the H endorsement for the first time. What it gets you: the DMV hazmat knowledge test and, with your TSA clearance, the H endorsement on your CDL.
The H endorsement pays more, opens tanker and fuel jobs, and is the endorsement most carriers ask for. Since 2022 it requires an ELDT hazmat theory course filed to the federal registry before the DMV will let you take the hazmat knowledge test.
Four steps: complete ELDT hazmat theory online (filed to the FMCSA registry), apply for the TSA Security Threat Assessment and get fingerprinted, pass the hazmat knowledge test at the DMV, then the DMV adds the H to your CDL once TSA clears you.
No. Hazmat ELDT has no behind-the-wheel requirement. You do the theory online and the rest at TSA and the DMV.
The completed theory record stays on the FMCSA registry. Your TSA clearance is what renews, every five years.
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.
