Course Details
The DOT Hours of Service (HOS) Training - FMCSA 49 CFR Part 395 course is a self-paced online program that shows commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers how federal driving-time limits guard against fatigue-related crashes. Learn to identify, assess, and avoid potential hazards to prevent accidents and injuries. You will study the core HOS regulations, including the 11-hour driving limit, the 14-hour on-duty window, and the required 30-minute break. The training also explains the 60- and 70-hour weekly limits, sleeper-berth provisions, and short-haul exceptions defined in 49 CFR Part 395. A dedicated section covers electronic logging device (ELD) requirements, records of duty status, and logbook recordkeeping so you can document compliance accurately. Each rule is tied to real driving situations, from planning a trip to correcting a duty-status entry.
Because it is delivered as self-paced online learning, you can complete the DOT Hours of Service training at your own pace from any computer or mobile device, with no scheduled sessions or travel required. The course is built for CMV drivers, fleet supervisors, dispatchers, and safety managers who need a clear, current understanding of FMCSA HOS compliance. When you finish and pass the final assessment, you earn a certificate of completion and 0.15 IACET CEU documenting 1.5 contact hours of instruction. Enroll below to build the Hours of Service knowledge that keeps you legal on the road and your fleet audit-ready.

Hours of Service
The FMCSA ELD Mandate requires most commercial drivers to use certified electronic logging devices to record Hours of Service (HOS) automatically. While devices must be FMCSA-registered, they do not have a single required format, provided they transfer data seamlessly. Exempted drivers may use paper logs, provided they maintain specific content.
