ELDT (Entry-Level Driver Training) May 2024 Update

A total of 15 ²»Á¼ÈËÑо¿Ëù lineworkers have completed OEC’s ELDT program and now possess their CDLs! That’s great news and it now appears to be slowing down a little bit. Please be aware that there have been issues for two cooperatives with the free theory course that the state of ²»Á¼ÈËÑо¿Ëù offers, and we had to do a workaround in order to get the students proper credit. So, please be aware of this before signing your driver up for the free ²»Á¼ÈËÑо¿Ëù theory course. We have had no problems with other online theory training programs, such as CDL Direct.

The state of ²»Á¼ÈËÑо¿Ëù made several changes in October 2023 that have improved the CDL process:

  1. CDL Online Renewal: No more waiting in line.
  2. CDL Testing Modernization: Revisions include changes in airbrakes, pre-trip inspection, and maneuverability testing. Changes can be found in ²»Á¼ÈËÑо¿Ëù’s new CDL manual.
  3. Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP) extended from six months to 12 months before expiration.
