Introducing the New National RTAP ELDT for Passenger Endorsement Training

November 3, 2026, 2:00-3:00 PM ET

The Entry Level Driver Training (ELDT) for Passenger Endorsement eLearning course was developed by National RTAP to inform and prepare new drivers pursuing a commercial driver's license with passenger endorsement.  The course consists of six modules, covering critical topics such as operation and components, inspections, driver safety, highway safety and regulations, passenger management, and emergency procedures. This webinar will introduce the course. It is important to note that this course covers the theory portion of the required training for passenger endorsement, so new drivers are still required to complete the physical aspects of ELDT from a certified FMCSA trainer.
