Additional Notes from Your Instructor
I can honestly say USCCA has been extremely helpful with an Instructor Support Team available 7 days a week. They are always there when you need them to assist with any questions you might have. USCCA also provides a website and payment collecting system that is easy to use. The Instructor Dashboard they provide is user friendly and helps you keep track of and post your classes online. This training has been my best investment in building my new instructor business and has given me the best return on my investment. I easily paid for this course in just one afternoon while teaching 6 wonderful ladies basic pistol fundamentals.
