In this course we will cover gear and gadgets related to Concealed Carry as well as Home Defense and Dry Fire Training tools.

This mini-class is designed to help students understand both patient and scene assessment. Students will learn Primary Assessments, the ABC's of patient assessment, as well as Secondary Assessments. We will also go over common traumatic injuries as well as how to treat them and what a basic trauma kit looks like vs a basic first aid kit.

This class is a 3-hour Concealed Carry Renewal class that meets the requirements for the state of Illinois CCL renewal. We'll discuss law, firearms basics, and answer any questions that may have arisen since your original CCL class.

This is a Concealed Carry course that meets the requirements to apply for your Illinois Concealed Carry License. This course will take place over multiple days and students will need to complete 16 total hours of instruction and pass a shooting qualification to receive their completion certificate.
