DOT Entry Level Driver Training – Class B to Class A CDL

This set of 22 courses covers all of the theory training topics required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA, an agency of the U.S. DOT) as of February 7, 2022 to upgrade from a Class B to a Class A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). You must complete all 22 courses and score at least 80% on all of the exams in order to complete the theory training requirement.

Once you have successfully completed all 22 courses and passed all 22 exams, your completion data will be submitted electronically to the FMCSA’s Training Provider Registry (TPR) so that any state DMV can access it. You must also complete the FMCSA’s behind-the-wheel (BTW) training requirement, which must be obtained from a separate training provider, before you attempt to pass the CDL knowledge and skills tests at a state DMV.

Bob Jonas

Bob Jonas began his trucking adventure in 1973, at the age of twenty-three, driving for a new company that manufactured windows. First employed to drive 20-foot straight trucks, over the next 15 years he logged over a million miles in 11 western states. Starting with 40-foot dry vans, increasing in size to 53 feet, he also pulled doubles, occasionally triples, flatbeds, and reefers (refrigerated trailers). In addition to delivering windows, he was required to back haul everything from raw glass, cereal, oyster shells, potato flakes, paper, Christmas trees, and swinging horse meat. He was also given the responsibility of testing new hires. After leaving the company he had worked for so long, Jonas's life headed in another direction, where he was still able to use his driving skills for part time work. In the next few years, he worked the Christmas rush for UPS, hostling, driving doubles and triples. He also worked for another company delivering 5,000 lbs. spools of newsprint, as well as container pick and delivery to the docks and rail yards. His final miles were logged part time for another window manufacturer. Never knowing what road he would travel next, Bob didn't give up his CDL until 2014.
