Detailed information about this program

This CDL Passenger Endorsement training course is offered online, using a self-paced, and interactive learning approach. Upon completing the online part, students may then participate in the hands-on portion of the course at any of the 24 Community Colleges around the state. This course was specifically designed for people who have already earned a Class B license, are seeking the P endorsement, and want to enter the transportation industry to drive transit coaches, tour coaches, or commercial passenger vehicles. Passenger endorsements are required to operate vehicles with 16 or more seats, including the driver. After each lesson, drivers must take a quiz and score 80% or greater. After completing the online element of the course, drivers will participate in the behind-the-wheel portion of the course at any one of the state’s 24 community colleges. When drivers finish this course and pass the state exam, an unrestricted Class B Passenger Endorsement is achieved. Upon successfully completing both online and hands-on portions of the course, a participant will receive an ACCS micro-credential.
