How CDL Training Works in Idaho
Getting a commercial driver's license in Idaho follows the same federal path as the rest of the country. Start by passing the written knowledge tests at your local Idaho DMV to receive a commercial learner's permit (CLP). With your permit in hand, enroll with one of the 40 FMCSA-registered providers listed below to complete Entry-Level Driver Training — classroom theory plus behind-the-wheel range and road hours. Your provider certifies your completion to FMCSA, and then you schedule and pass the Idaho CDL skills test to earn your license.
