Federal Project Grant Award Summary

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) awarded The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) a $1.796 million Project Grant under the Commercial Driver's License Program Implementation (CDLPI) Grant program (CFDA 20.232), effective December 1, 2025, through September 30, 2030. This grant funds a collaborative learning initiative designed to convene Commercial Driver's License (CDL) experts from state motor vehicle agencies in a structured environment to advance understanding of the national highway safety mission. The project will deliver targeted training and learning experiences for CDL program stakeholders, with events scheduled for both 2026 and 2027.

As the administrator and convener, AAMVA will leverage its established relationships with all 50 states and the District of Columbia to facilitate knowledge-sharing among highway safety partners. The initiative supports FMCSA's broader objective of improving the national CDL system through professional development and coordination among state licensing agencies, directly contributing to compliance with CDL regulatory requirements and addressing priority implementation activities within the program.
