All you have to do to get the endorsement is pass the written test and road test in a passenger vehicle. However, if you have a Class A CDL and road test in a vehicle requiring only a Class C CDL, you'll be restricted to operating passenger vehicles in that class and lower.

If you have your class A license what do you need to do to obtain your passenger endorsement?

Take the written passenger test, road test in a bus. The only passenger vehicles I've ever seen requiring a Class A CDL were the 'cattle cars' when I was in Basic Training, and those might have fallen under an exemption from requiring a CDL... you'll be restricted to whatever class of license is required for the passenger vehicle you'll road test in, so, if you take it in a bus requiring a Class B, you'll be restricted to passenger vehicles requiring a Class B or C CDL.

Do you need a cdl in nc to drive a 36 passenger bus that doesn't have air brakes and is under 26000 ibs?

Not just in NC, but in the whole of the United States, that vehicle would require a Class C CDL (minimum) with "P" (for 'Passenger') endorsement. Any vehicle of any weight class which is designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver) requires a CDL with P endorsement - Class C if under 26,000 GVWR, Class B if a single vehicle in excess of 26,000 GVWR.If it's a school bus, you'll need the 'S' endorsement - essentially a passenger endorsement, but with a background check.By the way, North Carolina will make you pay out the nose for a CDL - just wanted to make sure you knew that. The licence I paid $35 to transfer to Colorado last year cost me $220 when I renewed it in North Carolina in 2010. Mine is a Class A with two endorsements, so yours shouldn't cost as much, but it still won't be cheap.Anyhow, go to the Drivers Licence Office (if you're in the vicinity of Garner/Clayton, I recommend the one on NC42 between US70 and I40 if you don't want to have to wait forever) and obtain a copy of the CDL handbook. You will need to take the following written tests:General knowledgePassengersYou need to have a properly licenced driver bring the vehicle in with you when you take your written tests. The passenger endorsement requires a road test in the appropriate class of passenger vehicle - so you might as well get your CDL and passenger endorsement road tests knocked out in one sitting. You also need to schedule a physical exam for a DOT physical, as you will need the DOT medical card before you upgrade to a CDL.
