Driver training records for fleets
Trucking companies, waste haulers, utilities and public works departments that train their own drivers on their own equipment.
Fleets and city services
Train your own drivers, keep the record
Motor carriers, state and local governments, school districts and owner-operators can all be training providers under the federal ELDT rules (49 CFR 380.605). If your new drivers need a CDL, the training must come from a provider listed on FMCSA's Training Provider Registry. ELDT Systems keeps that record, and the record of every other driver you train.
Your equipment, your sheets
Build score sheets for refuse trucks, dump trucks, tankers or anything you run.
Company training mode
Set up as a carrier training its own drivers and see the state rules that apply to carriers, not schools.
Refresher and remedial training
Company driver refreshers and remedial sessions, scored and signed like any other session.
Trainer qualifications
Each trainer's CDL, endorsements, medical card and experience, with reminders before they expire.
Several locations
Each yard or training site with its own state rules and its own registry number.
Spreadsheet export
Every score, minute and signature status as a spreadsheet for your safety department.
The record
Every session becomes a signed, dated record
Score every session on a phone
Each skill on your own score sheet, tapped 1 to 5 while you ride along. Running averages show who is ready and who needs more time.
A clock in every section
Start and stop the clock beside each section's minutes. The record shows the start and end times, and the trainer can correct the minutes.
Signatures on every session
The student and the trainer sign on the screen. A student who could not sign at the time signs later from their own login.
Who taught, and in which vehicle
Every session keeps the trainer who taught it, substitutes included, and the vehicle used.
Documents in the student file
Enrollment agreements, permits, licenses and photos stay with the student's record.
Reports when you need them
A daily progress report PDF for each student, a full audit binder, and every score as a spreadsheet.
State rules
Training rules where you teach
Driver training rules are set by each state. Add each classroom and range location in ELDT Systems and it shows the rules for that state, with links to the official sources.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Can a trucking company or city be a training provider?
Yes. The federal definition of a training provider includes motor carriers, State and local governments, school districts and owner-operators, among others (49 CFR 380.605). To give entry-level driver training they must be listed on FMCSA's Training Provider Registry.
Can we record training that is not for a CDL?
Yes. Any driver training can be scored and signed: refreshers, new equipment, remedial training and more.
