CA DMV New Requirements for Entry Level Driver Training for Passenger Vehicles

    Hello!

    I am inquiring to see if anyone has already gone through the new California requirements for Passenger Vehicles.  As of February 7th 2022, if your vehicle is 15 or less, then you can just add the Passenger Endorsement to your Class C license in California, however you need to go through an "Entry Level Driver Training" course before taking your Behind the Wheel test, and Class B is no longer the requirement. (those who have Class B before Feb 7 are still good to go and no need to renew).

    I am having no luck finding any driving schools offering this specific training "Commercial Class C for Passenger Vehicle".  The schools on the list are for Bus Driving, or big trucks, etc.  I have had no luck at the DMV for them to recommend a school as they cannot "endorse" and the other schools are not aware of anyone offering it at this time.

    Any help is appreciated!
