Training (ELDT) requirements. The curriculum is 192 hours in length and
consists of three parts. The first part is 80 hours of classroom, lab, and

second part is 110 hours of Behind the Wheel (BTW) vehicle instruction to
prepare the student for FMCSA Range and Public Road ELDT proficiency
requirements for the Class A CDL skills test (road test). The final portion
of the program is allotted for 2 hours to complete the state Skills Test
(road test). Preparation and scheduling for the CDL Skills test on a manual
transmission vehicle is included.
