| PTDI's E-Z Guide to the Entry-Level Driver RegulationThe new Entry Level Driver Training (ELDT) regulation applies to training organizations and driver trainees applying for their commercial driver’s license (CDL) for the first time; an upgrade of their CDL (e.g., a Class B CDL holder seeking a Class A CDL); or a hazardous materials (H), passenger (P), or school bus (S) endorsement for the first time. Driver Trainees must complete a prescribed program of instruction provided by an entity that is listed on the FMCSA’s Training Provider Registry (TPR). PTDI's E-Z Guide to the Entry-Level Driver Regulation outlines the new and updated requirements for driver trainees and entities that train entry-level drivers. For those assessing where to start with the new ELDT regulation, this publication is a comprehensive primer that guides your focus.
