Based on the requirements set forth by Service Oklahoma, operating a school bus requires a Class B CDL with the following endorsements:

• School Bus
• Passenger, and
• Air Brakes (Optional-only required if you intend to operate a school bus equipped with an air brake system).

​​​​​​​For more details on vehicles requiring a CDL, you can visit the Service Oklahoma website here.

View our page here for information on the training process for your CDL.

In short, there are several steps that you must take to obtain your Commercial Driver's License (CDL), which includes:

1. Studying for and passing a written exam that consists of a general knowledge portion in addition to portions that pertain to the endorsements you intend to add to your license. View more information about CDL Written Exams here.
2. Upon successful completion of your Written Exams, you obtain your Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP). This is required for you to complete the necessary behind the wheel training, which is a prerequisite for you to qualify for your drive test. View more information on behind the wheel training here. 
3. Once you complete the required behind-the-wheel training, you can take your drive test at either a Service Oklahoma location or by testing with a certified Third Party Examiner. Your test will consist of a pre-trip section, maneuvers section, and an on-the-road drive section.
