Yes, entry-level driver training (ELDT) is required to upgrade from a Class B to a Class A commercial driver’s license (CDL). However, the driver does not need to cover all 30 of the required theory topics to obtain a Class A CDL.

Appendix A to Part 380 details this abbreviated curriculum, referred to as Theory Instruction Upgrade Curriculum. There is no abbreviated curriculum for behind-the-wheel training.
