Other endorsements in Delaware
Different curriculum, different test, different providers
What Class A training has to cover
The federal requirements for this endorsement
49 CFR 383.91(a)(1) defines Group A as any combination of vehicles with a gross combination weight rating of 11,794 kilograms or more (26,001 pounds or more), provided the gross vehicle weight rating of the vehicle or vehicles being towed is in excess of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds). That definition, not the job title, is what decides whether a driver needs Class A.
The training itself is set by Appendix A to 49 CFR Part 380, and its opening paragraph contains four rules worth knowing before booking anything:
- There is no minimum number of hours, for theory or for behind-the-wheel, but the instructor must cover every topic in the curriculum. A school advertising a fixed number of weeks is describing its own programme, not a federal requirement.
- Behind-the-wheel training must be conducted in a vehicle for which a Class A CDL is required. Training in a straight truck does not satisfy it.
- A simulator cannot be used to conduct behind-the-wheel training or to demonstrate proficiency, which Appendix A ties back to the definitions of range and public-road training in 380.605.
- The instructor must determine and document proficiency in every element of the behind-the-wheel curriculum, and must document the total clock hours each trainee spent.
Appendix A also carries an upgrade path the other appendices do not: a Class A applicant who already holds a valid Class B CDL may complete the Theory Instruction Upgrade Curriculum in place of the standard theory curriculum. That is a materially shorter route and it is worth asking a provider whether it offers it.
On content, the Class A theory curriculum runs from Section A1.1 Basic Operation through orientation, control systems and dashboard, pre- and post-trip inspections tied to 49 CFR 392.7 and 396.11, basic control, shifting and operating transmissions, and backing and docking. The backing unit is explicit about teaching "Get Out and Look", evaluating backing and loading facilities, and backing with spotters. The orientation unit has to cover disqualification provisions and fines for non-compliance with Parts 380, 382, 383 and 390 through 399, plus weigh stations, size and weight limits, low clearances and bridge formulas.
The largest concentration is in New Castle: 3 of 16 (19%). Other cities covered include Newark (3), Wilmington (3), Georgetown (2), Laurel (1), Middletown (1), and 3 more.
By county, the 16 entries fall across 3 counties; the largest are New Castle (9), Sussex (4), Kent (1).
These 16 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 16 hold the same class of registration: FMCSA-registered ELDT training provider, in the source's own wording.
12 of the 16 (75%) 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 A (16), Class B (9), Hazardous Materials (9), Passenger (7), School Bus (6).
By what they actually deliver: 15 offer behind-the-wheel training on public roads, 15 offer classroom or online theory instruction and 13 offer behind-the-wheel training on a range. 13 of the 16 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. 1 offers theory only, so a trainee using it needs a second provider for the driving half.
14 of 16 publish a phone number and 12 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.
12 of the 16 map positions come straight from the register and 1 were derived from the published address through the US Census Bureau geocoder. 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.
3 of the 16 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 3 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 A in Delaware: questions

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.
