Other endorsements in Connecticut

Different curriculum, different test, different providers

What Class B training has to cover

The federal requirements for this endorsement

49 CFR 383.91(a)(2) defines Group B as any single vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating of 11,794 kilograms or more (26,001 pounds or more), or any such vehicle towing a vehicle not in excess of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) gross vehicle weight rating. The towing allowance is the line between Class B and Class A.

The curriculum is Appendix B to 49 CFR Part 380. Its structure parallels Class A: no minimum hours for theory or behind-the-wheel, all topics must be covered, behind-the-wheel training must be conducted in a vehicle for which a Class B CDL is required, a simulation device cannot be used for that training or to demonstrate proficiency, and the instructor must document proficiency and total clock hours.

The difference from Appendix A is in the detail rather than the shape. Appendix B's Basic Operation section covers coupling and uncoupling only "as applicable", because a straight vehicle may not do it at all, and the backing unit teaches backing and docking the vehicle rather than a combination. The shifting unit stresses fuel economy rather than the combination-vehicle control emphasis in Appendix A.

One consequence of 49 CFR 383.91(c)(2) is worth knowing before choosing which class to train for: a driver who has passed the knowledge and skills tests for Group B may operate any Group C small vehicle, provided they hold the requisite endorsements. And under 383.91(c)(1), a Group A driver may operate Group B and Group C vehicles on the same condition. Training for the higher class therefore carries downward, which is the argument for Class A if the eventual job is uncertain — although Appendix A's upgrade curriculum means going Class B first and upgrading later is not a wasted step either.

18in the directory
18in the state register
17cities
6counties

The largest concentration is in New Britain: 2 of 18 (11%). Other cities covered include Avon (1), Branford (1), Bridgeport (1), Cheshire (1), Colchester (1), and 11 more.

By county, the 18 entries fall across 6 counties; the largest are South Central Connecticut (6), Capitol (5), Southeastern Connecticut (3), Naugatuck Valley (2).

These 18 entries come from a register that publishes no registration dates at all. For those, the only thing that can honestly be said is that the facility appeared in the state register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026. No issue, renewal or expiry date is shown for them, and none is guessed.

All 18 hold the same class of registration: FMCSA-registered ELDT training provider, in the source's own wording.

18 of the 18 (100%) hold more than one class of registration. Each is one entry here, with every class it holds shown in its record detail. Across this page the classes held include Class B (18), Passenger (14), School Bus (11), Class A (7), Hazardous Materials (5).

By what they actually deliver: 18 offer behind-the-wheel training on public roads, 17 offer behind-the-wheel training on a range and 17 offer classroom or online theory instruction. 17 of the 18 can deliver both the range and the public-road portions, which matters because 49 CFR 380.707(c) allows the theory and behind-the-wheel portions to come from different providers but requires both behind-the-wheel portions to come from the same one.

15 of 18 publish a phone number and 6 have a website. Phone numbers are normalized to one format here; the registers publish them several different ways.

The Training Provider Registry publishes a phone number and a website for some providers and not for others, so the coverage below varies by place.

The map positions come from the register itself rather than from an address lookup. No distance claim is made anywhere in this text; the "nearest to me" list computes straight-line distances in your own browser from your own location.

5 of the 18 entries could not be placed on a map: the register gives a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction rather than a street address, and 5 of those are currently on the register. They are listed and searchable here by name, city and county, and left out of the map and the "nearest to me" results. Guessing a plausible position for a PO box would be worse than admitting there is not one.

Every record on this page comes from Training Provider Registry, published by Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on tpr.fmcsa.dot.gov as dataset training-provider-registry. Each card carries the date the record was last re-checked.

Class B in Connecticut: questions

Which cities in Class B training in Connecticut have schools?
By count: New Britain (2), Avon (1), Branford (1), Bridgeport (1), Cheshire (1), Colchester (1), Guilford (1), Meriden (1), Middletown (1), Milford (1), plus 7 more. Addresses, registration class and, where the register publishes them, registration dates are in the list above.
Are these schools currently licensed?
The state register these records come from publishes no registration dates, so the honest answer is narrower than it looks: each of these 18 facilities appeared in the register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026. No expiry date is shown because none is published, and none is guessed. Confirm the current position with the facility or the issuing authority before relying on it.
Why does one address hold several licenses?
Because a row in the state register is a license, not a business. 18 of the 18 entries on this page hold more than one class at the same address, typically an inspection license alongside a repair or dealer license. They are merged into a single entry here, keyed on the facility rather than on the license, so one shop is one listing and its other classes appear on its own page.
Which of these can do the behind-the-wheel training?
17 of the 18 are registered for both the range and the public-road portions. The distinction matters: 49 CFR 380.707(c) permits the theory and behind-the-wheel portions to be delivered by separate providers, but requires both behind-the-wheel portions, range and public road, to come from the same provider. Breakdown here: behind-the-wheel public-road training 18, behind-the-wheel range training 17, theory instruction 17.
Why do the cards not show star ratings?
No public rating has been matched to any of these 18 records, so no stars are shown. The registration record is the stronger signal in any case: where the register publishes them, the issue date, last renewal, expiry and the Training Provider Registry listing all come from the issuing authority, which is not true of a star average.
Why are some entries missing from the map?
5 of these 18 records give a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction instead of a street address, so no coordinate could be derived for them. They are still listed and searchable by name, city and county, and they are left out of the map and the "nearest to me" results. Placing a PO box at a plausible-looking point would make the map look complete and be wrong.

Get told when the register changes

Licenses lapse and get renewed constantly: in the current data nearly a quarter of the records in one state register have already expired. We re-check the registers and email a short summary of what moved.

One email when the register data is refreshed or a rule changes. No more than monthly.
