What You'll Learn

This is a USCCA Instructor level class for the Concealed Carry & Home Defense Fundamentals curriculum. The class includes an eLearning segment that needs to be competed at least one week in advance of the first day of class and bring a copy of the completion certificate to class. Additionally, students will be required to demonstrate their proficiency in safely handling and shooting their own firearm, as well as being able to teach students those same skills on the range and in the classroom. Certified Instructor candidates must also demonstrate their ability to convey handgun training concepts using PowerPoint presentation materials. The class includes a range qualification and written test.

    "I recently had the pleasure of attending the USCCA Concealed Carry & Home Defense Instructor class led by the remarkable Jerry Ranson. Jerry’s expertise and teaching style truly set this course apart. His ability to blend comprehensive instruction with an engaging and enjoyable atmosphere made the learning process not only informative but also incredibly fun. Jerry’s commitment to excellence was evident in every aspect of the course. He went above and beyond to ensure that all students fully grasped the material, providing personalized attention and support whenever needed. His passion for empowering others in responsible firearm use and home defense strategies was both inspiring and contagious. This class has not only equipped me with valuable skills but also instilled a greater sense of confidence in my abilities. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn from such an exceptional instructor and would highly recommend Jerry Ranson’s class to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of concealed carry and home defense."

    "Our USCCA Training Counselor Jerry Ranson was professional and clearly communicated both days. I was beyond impressed with his attention to detail and safety. His teaching style allowed for questions, breaks and discussions which helped me to not get overwhelmed, but instead leave the course confident in the material. I can’t say enough about my experance. I highly recommend Jerry Ranson as your USCCA Instructor and Training Counselor. I will be taking more of his classes for sure! To sum it up: Great two days, learned a lot, felt safe, clear communication, confidence moving forward. "
