The Entry Level Driver Training (ELDT) program represents a significant advancement in standardizing school bus driver training across the United States. Implemented by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration in February 2022, this comprehensive program combines both theoretical knowledge and practical behind-the-wheel training. The online delivery method through platforms like INFINITI Fleet Safety Training has revolutionized the accessibility of training, reducing completion time from 40 hours to approximately 10-12 hours. This efficient approach helps school districts address driver shortages more quickly while maintaining high training standards through comprehensive documentation and progress tracking.
