Beginning February 7, 2022, all entry-level operators of commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in both interstate and intrastate commerce who are applying for a commercial driver’s license (CDL) must first satisfactorily complete minimum training requirements before taking their state-administered CDL examination.
The training must be given by a “training provider” registered with FMCSA’s newly-established Training Provider Registry (TPR). Training providers can be either “for-hire” (commercial) or “not-for-hire,” such as government or non-profit entities, including training schools, educational institutions, state/local governments, labor programs, motor carriers, owner-operators and individuals.
TLDR: If you want your CDL, you're going to need to take classes after February 2022. If you have a learner's permit before that date, you are grandfathered but will have to take a class if you don't pass the exams in the allotted time / attempts.
