CDL Schools in New Hampshire: Behind-the-Wheel Training
18 CDL schools, truck driving schools and other training locations in New Hampshire (NH) are listed on the FMCSA Training Provider Registry for behind-the-wheel CDL training, including schools in Concord, Farmington, Manchester, Peterborough, Croydon. You need behind-the-wheel training from a registered provider after your ELDT theory.
Need ELDT theory? It can come from a different registered provider than your school: our $20 Class A CDL theory course is online and accepted in New Hampshire. The New Hampshire ELDT guide covers the permit and test steps.

About CDL training in New Hampshire
New Hampshire's registered schools cluster in the southern tier along I-93 and the Massachusetts line, around Manchester, Concord and the Monadnock towns, with a few further north. Drivers in the Nashua or Salem area are often closer to a Massachusetts school than to the in-state locations up north.
Of the 18 NH locations on the registry, 18 (100%) are registered for Class A training, 17 (94%) for Class B, 8 for the passenger (P) endorsement and 6 for school bus (S); 9 also hold hazmat (H) theory, which has no driving portion, so the hazmat endorsement course can be taken online. 1 of the names is a school district, transit agency, college or other public body, which often trains only its own drivers, so the number open to the public may be smaller.
Where each class is taught: Class A in Concord (3), Farmington (2) and Manchester (2); Class B in Concord (3), Farmington (2) and Manchester (2); the passenger (P) endorsement in Farmington (2), Manchester (2) and Peterborough (2); school bus (S) in Farmington (2), Manchester (2) and Concord (1).
17 of the 18 list a phone number and 9 publish a website. 6 records were updated by the provider in 2026 and 12 carry an older date; the newest NH record (160 Driving Academy) is from September 2026. Treat an old date as a reason to call first, not as proof that a school has closed.
The locations are spread over 13 cities; the biggest clusters are Concord (3), Farmington (2), Manchester (2), Peterborough (2) and Croydon (1). Also listed: Hanover (1), Hooksett (1), Hudson (1), Jaffrey (1), Littleton (1), New Boston (1), Pelham (1) and Tamworth (1). Each city heading below is a jump link, and every card shows the classes that location is registered for.
No registered location is listed in Nashua or Derry; use the ZIP search for the closest one.

Before behind-the-wheel in New Hampshire
Schools in New Hampshire can only put you on the range once you hold a Commercial Learner's Permit from the New Hampshire Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Federal rules then require at least 14 days with the permit before the skills test, and the agency must see both your theory and your behind-the-wheel completions in the FMCSA registry before it gives you that test. So finish theory first, with any registered provider, then bring the permit to one of the 18 NH locations on this page.
The New Hampshire ELDT guide covers the NH permit steps, agency fees and testing rules, and the online theory part costs $20 per course.
