In early 2022, FMCSA introduced new Entry-Level Driver Training regulations that set the baseline for training requirements for entry-level drivers. This applies to those seeking to obtain a Class A or Class B CDL for the first time; upgrade an existing Class B CDL to a Class A CDL; or obtain a school bus, passenger, or hazardous materials endorsement for the first time.

The new Entry-Level Driver Training School Bus Endorsement Training Curriculum is designed to help CDL drivers meet the theory requirements set by the FMCSA for entry-level drivers seeking a school bus endorsement on a new or existing CDL.

  • Danger Zones and Use of Mirrors
