Training and the licence in Connecticut

Where you train: any school on FMCSA's national registry, in Connecticut or elsewhere. Since February 2022 a first Class A or Class B licence, an upgrade from B to A, and a first passenger, school bus or hazmat endorsement all require training from a registered provider.

Class B: 18 of the in-person schools in Connecticut are registered for Class B training (straight trucks, buses, dump trucks). Class B schools by state.

Free and funded training in Connecticut: workforce grants under WIOA are paid through local American Job Centers, veterans can use GI Bill benefits at approved schools, and carriers run company-paid programmes with a work commitment.

Where you test and hold the licence: the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles, the state where you live. Federal rules also let another state give you the skills test and require your home state to accept the result. State motor vehicle agencies on USA.gov.

Travelling instructors based in Connecticut

A travelling provider brings the training to a yard or site rather than running a campus. Ask where they actually teach, and whether they cover range and public-road training or theory only.
