Explanation:
Similar explanation given by Writeaway:
In most situations, drivers license endorsements are used for granting you additional driving privileges without having you to apply for a different type of drivers license. Most of the Pennsylvania driver's license endorsements apply to commercial drivers licenses and thus won't be useful to those who currently hold a regular class C license. However, there are exceptions to this trend, such as a motorcycle endorsement. A motorcycle endorsement can be added to any regular drivers license.

agree  B D Finch: Sorry, I'd read "approbation" with its English meaning, rather than plain approval. Tony's comment is wrong, because he hasn't realised that the US meaning is utterly different from the UK meaning of endorsement in the context of driving licence

Reference information:
License Endorsement Codes
Endorsements give you extra driving privileges. License endorsement codes are printed on the front of your license on the line under the "Expiration date" field, after the letter "E". A description of any endorsements you have is printed on the back of your photo license document.
