Getting your Hazmat Endorsement on your CDL requires a few steps. Applicants must go through ELDT (Entry Level Driver Training), pass a background check and the final step is to pass a knowledge exam at the DMV. It’s that easy!
Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) is a federal requirement that standardizes the training process for obtaining a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) and specific endorsements, such as the Hazardous Materials (Hazmat) endorsement. Implemented by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) on February 7, 2022, ELDT ensures that all new drivers receive comprehensive and consistent training before taking their CDL or endorsement exams.
ELDT impacts the process of obtaining a Hazmat endorsement by requiring drivers to complete a detailed theory training program from a registered training provider. This program covers essential knowledge areas necessary for safely handling and transporting hazardous materials. Trainees must achieve a minimum passing score of 80% on their theory training. Once the theory portion is completed, drivers must pass their state’s written Hazmat exam (FMCSA) (American Trucking Associations).
The introduction of ELDT aims to enhance road safety by ensuring that all commercial drivers meet the same high standards, regardless of where they are trained. This uniformity helps improve the overall quality of commercial driver training and ensures that new drivers are well-prepared to handle hazardous materials safely and efficiently (FMCSA) (American Trucking Associations).
The ELDT Hazmat training program includes a comprehensive range of topics to equip drivers with the necessary skills and knowledge to handle hazardous materials safely. The curriculum is designed to address both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, ensuring that drivers are well-prepared for real-world scenarios.
No, if you already have a valid CDL and are adding a Hazmat endorsement, you only need to complete the Hazmat-specific theory training. This part of the training can be done entirely online. There’s no requirement for behind-the-wheel (BTW) training for the Hazmat endorsement itself. Once you complete the theory training and pass the written Hazmat test at your state’s DMV, you’ll be qualified to add the endorsement to your CDL. This means that your focus will be on understanding the regulations and safety procedures related to transporting hazardous materials, rather than additional driving practice.
