SUMMARY:TN Armed Guard CERTIFICATION Course
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Are you interested in becoming an armed security guard? We can help. Private security work in Tennessee is governed by the Private Protective Services Licensing and Regulatory Act (Title 62\, chapter 35 of the Tennessee Code). It’s regulated by the Department of Commerce and Insurance\, which administers the application process. One requirement for new applicants is 16 hours of specialized training. If that’s the training you’re looking for\, you’re in the right place![/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Info” tab_id=”course-info”][vc_column_text]\nIn Tennessee\, all armed security guards must meet the armed guard registration requirements to be authorized to carry a firearm on the job. This course satisfies the training requirement imposed by Tenn. Code Ann. § 62-35-118 (b) for applicants seeking to earn an armed security registration card.  \nAs required by law\, this is a 16-hour course that includes 4 hours of unarmed guard training and 8 hours of classroom instruction with a focus on authority\, duties and legal responsibilities of security guards/officers\, use of force laws in Tennessee\, gun safety\, and proper selection of weapons and gear. The final 4 hours are spent in live fire training on the range. \nRange training includes hands-on time with weapons to improve mindset\, marksmanship\, and manipulation skills\, as well as defensive shooting tactics\, techniques\, and procedures.  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Eligibility” tab_id=”eligibility”][vc_column_text]\nBelow are the eligibility requirements for an armed guard license (see Tenn.

SUMMARY:Permiso de Portar Arma
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]¿Interesado en obtener su permiso de portar un arma? Este curso de seguridad de seis horas satisface la capacitación mínima requerida por el Código Anotado de Tennessee. § 39-17-1366 para obtener un Permiso de Arma de Fuego Oculto (CCP). Tennessee no requiere un permiso para poseer un arma de fuego (por ejemplo\, si tiene una en su hogar). Sin embargo\, si desea llevar un arma de fuego oculta en su persona en público\, necesitará un permiso. Hay muchas personas que anuncian clases de permisos hoy en día. Antes de inscribirse en el curso más barato\, más cercano o más corto que pueda encontrar\, considere lo qué hace qué CSA sea único.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Información del Curso” tab_id=”course-info”][vc_column_text]\nTemas tratados en este curso: \n\n Reglas de seguridad de armas de fuego\n Características de las pistolas (nomenclatura)\n Usos y técnicas de armas de fuego\n Conocimientos y habilidades de armas para un manejo seguro\n Almacenamiento seguro básico de armas de fuego y municiones\n Métodos seguros de transporte y almacenamiento en vehículos\n Instrucciones de limpieza segura de pistolas\n Ley actual de Tennessee sobre el porte de armas de fuego\n Próximos pasos y opciones para más capacitación\n\nDado que la mayoría de las personas que toman esta clase planean obtener su permiso de portación\, el contenido del curso se adapta al contexto de la defensa personal (a diferencia de la cacería\, el tiro deportivo\, etc.). El porte oculto es muy diferente de otras aplicaciones de armas de fuego\, y nos encargamos de señalar esos matices. Más allá de la referencia mínima requerida por el estado a los estatutos relacionados con las armas de fuego\, también cubrimos las implicaciones legales de la fuerza defensiva\, incluida la fuerza letal. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Lista de Equipo” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]\nPara el curso\, cada estudiante necesitará lo siguiente: \n\n Pistola confiable (podemos prestarle una si es necesario\, sin cargo)\n 100 rondas de munición de práctica confiable y de buena calidad (se puede comprar en CSA)\n Protección ocular y protección auditiva\n Paciencia\, buena actitud y una mente abierta.\n\nSi aún no posee un arma de fuego\, ¡no compre una antes de la clase! Nuestro curso CCP le brindará los conocimientos necesarios para tomar decisiones informadas sobre qué arma de fuego se adaptará mejor a sus circunstancias. Es mucho mejor tomar la clase primero usando una de nuestras armas de préstamo gratuito. De esa manera\, no harás una compra apresurada de la que luego te puedas arrepentir. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre las pistolas\, municiones u otros equipos necesarios para la clase\, no dude en ponerse en contacto con nosotros. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”¿Por qué entrenar con CSA?” tab_id=”why-train-with-csa”][vc_column_text]\nAlgunas de las mejores características de nuestra clase CCP incluyen: \n\n Cumplimiento inquebrantable de los protocolos de seguridad.\n Clases pequeñas con bajas proporciones de alumnos por maestro\n Instructores pacientes que pueden relacionarse con tiradores nuevos y no tradicionales.\n Atención al detalle e instrucción individualizada\n Un ambiente no intimidante\n Sin defensa política o retórica divisiva y polarizadora\n Atención adicional a los fundamentos y la aplicación práctica.\n Enfoque principal en contextos de autodefensa (a diferencia de la caza\, el deporte o la competencia)\n Máximo respeto por el tiempo\, las prioridades y las motivaciones de los estudiantes\n\nLa decisión de portar un arma de fuego para protegerse es importante. Entendemos que esta será la primera clase de entrenamiento con armas de muchas personas\, por lo que hacemos todo lo posible para que sea una experiencia positiva. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Regístrate ahora” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]¡Esperamos verte en clase!

This course is designed expressly for the armed citizen who carries a concealed handgun\, or the plain clothes or off-duty police officer. The goal is to develop the knowledge\, skills\, and mindset necessary to dominate and end an inescapable deadly assault\, and then successfully defend those actions in court. \nTopics include: \n\nMental awareness and techniques for gaining advantage in life-threatening confrontations\nProper defensive mindset and personal tactics\nConcealing a pistol properly and clothing considerations\nEffective gun handling techniques designed to work under stress\nRapid presentation from concealed carry during an attack (and safely concealing it)\nHigh speed accuracy at close ranges and precision shooting at mid ranges\nRapidly and reliably fixing pistol malfunctions and reloading techniques\nTactical anatomy\nProper skill development practices\n\nClass prerequisites: Completion of a state handgun carry permit class. You should also have some experience safely handling and drawing a pistol. If you have questions about your suitability for the course\, please contact us or TEXT us at 615-801-8007. \nStudents who complete the course will receive a completion certificate. \nWhat you will need to take the course: \n\nA quality pistol recommend minimum of 9mm or .38 Special. We recommend full or compact sized guns for this class. Sub-compact guns are much harder to shoot all day. A second gun like the first one is a good idea in case the first one breaks.\nA quality strong side hip or appendix holster – either form fitted leather or kydex\, the holster must completely cover the trigger guard\, allow a full firing grip with the gun in the holster and remain open while the gun is drawn. PLEASE NO flimsy nylon or cloth holsters.\nA quality belt\, purposely designed to securely attach the holster to the belt and support the weight of a fully loaded pistol.\nAbout 250 rounds of quality training ammunition. If you can bring more\, do so\nAT LEAST 3 magazines or speed loaders with appropriate belt pouches for the spare magazines.\nClothing appropriate for concealing a firearm (vest\, jacket\, windbreaker\, over-shirt\, polo shirt\, etc.). Holsters must be worn concealed.\nEye protection and hearing protection (we recommend electronic) and we recommend a ball cap or brimmed hat to keep brass from going behind your eye protection.\nComfortable shoes and clothing appropriate for the weather.\nRain gear (we train rain or shine)\, bug repellant\, and sun screen if necessary.\nA cooler with soft drinks\, water\, snacks and lunch will be needed\, for lunch on site. We will not be leaving the range for lunch.\n\nYou can bring a revolver to this course\, but we strongly recommend against it as they tend not to last a full day of intensive shooting. \nIf you need help putting the above items together please contact us. \nGenerally\, refunds aren’t issued\, so please be sure you can make the date before purchase.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Citizens Pro-Social Pistol Skills (Private)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]This is an intensive 2-day course that covers the essential mindset and skills needed to successfully defend yourself with a pistol.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nThis is an intensive 2-day course that covers the essential skills needed to successfully defend against a deadly criminal attack\, within the rule of law. This course is designed expressly for the armed citizen who carries a concealed handgun\, or the plain clothes or off-duty police officer. The goal is to develop the knowledge\, skills\, and mindset necessary to dominate and end an inescapable deadly assault\, and then successfully defend those actions in court.  \nTopics include: \n\nMental awareness and techniques for gaining advantage in life-threatening confrontations\nProper defensive mindset and personal tactics \nConcealing a pistol properly and clothing considerations\nEffective gun handling techniques designed to work under stress\nRapid presentation from concealed carry during an attack (and safely concealing it)\nHigh speed accuracy at close ranges and precision shooting at mid ranges\nRapidly and reliably fixing pistol malfunctions and reloading techniques \nShooting effectively with one hand\nShooting effectively with a cognitive load\nTactical anatomy \nProper skill development practices\n\nClass prerequisites: Completion of a state handgun carry permit class or other comparative pistol shooting class. You should also have some experience safely handling\, drawing and holstering a pistol. If you have questions about suitability of the course\, please email us at info@CitizensSafety.com or text us at 615-801-8007.  \nStudents who complete the course will receive a completion certificate.  \nWhat you will need to take the course: \n\nA quality pistol recommend minimum of 9mm or .38 Special. We recommend full or compact sized guns for this class. Sub-compact guns are much harder to shoot all day. A second gun like the first one is a good idea in case the first one breaks.\nA quality strong side hip or appendix holster – either form fitted leather or kydex\, the holster must completely cover the trigger guard\, allow a full firing grip with the gun in the holster and remain open while the gun is drawn. PLEASE NO flimsy nylon or cloth holsters.\nA quality belt\, purposely designed to securely attach the holster to the belt and support the weight of a fully loaded pistol.\nAbout 550-600 rounds of quality training ammunition. If you can bring more do so\nAT LEAST 3 magazines or speed loaders with appropriate belt pouches for the spare magazines. The more magazines you bring\, the better.\nClothing appropriate for concealing a firearm (vest\, jacket\, windbreaker\, over-shirt\, polo shirt\, etc.). Holsters must be worn concealed. \nEye protection and hearing protection (we recommend electronic) and we recommend a ball cap or brimmed hat to keep brass from going behind your eye protection. \nComfortable shoes and clothing appropriate for the weather.\nRain gear (we train rain or shine)\, bug repellant\, and sun screen if necessary.\nA cooler with soft drinks\, water\, snacks and lunch will be needed\, for lunch on site. We will not be leaving the range for lunch.\n\nYou can bring a revolver to this course\, but we strongly recommend against it as they tend not to last a full day of intensive shooting.  \nIf you need help putting the above items together please contact us before the class. Info@CitizensSafety.com. \nAqil Qadir will be your lead instructor assisted by other CSA instructors. \nGenerally\, refunds aren’t issued\, so please be sure you can make the date before purchase.  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Permiso de Portar Arma
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]¿Interesado en obtener su permiso de portar un arma? Este curso de seguridad de seis horas satisface la capacitación mínima requerida por el Código Anotado de Tennessee. § 39-17-1366 para obtener un Permiso de Arma de Fuego Oculto (CCP). Tennessee no requiere un permiso para poseer un arma de fuego (por ejemplo\, si tiene una en su hogar). Sin embargo\, si desea llevar un arma de fuego oculta en su persona en público\, necesitará un permiso. Hay muchas personas que anuncian clases de permisos hoy en día. Antes de inscribirse en el curso más barato\, más cercano o más corto que pueda encontrar\, considere lo qué hace qué CSA sea único.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Información del Curso” tab_id=”course-info”][vc_column_text]\nTemas tratados en este curso: \n\n Reglas de seguridad de armas de fuego\n Características de las pistolas (nomenclatura)\n Usos y técnicas de armas de fuego\n Conocimientos y habilidades de armas para un manejo seguro\n Almacenamiento seguro básico de armas de fuego y municiones\n Métodos seguros de transporte y almacenamiento en vehículos\n Instrucciones de limpieza segura de pistolas\n Ley actual de Tennessee sobre el porte de armas de fuego\n Próximos pasos y opciones para más capacitación\n\nDado que la mayoría de las personas que toman esta clase planean obtener su permiso de portación\, el contenido del curso se adapta al contexto de la defensa personal (a diferencia de la cacería\, el tiro deportivo\, etc.). El porte oculto es muy diferente de otras aplicaciones de armas de fuego\, y nos encargamos de señalar esos matices. Más allá de la referencia mínima requerida por el estado a los estatutos relacionados con las armas de fuego\, también cubrimos las implicaciones legales de la fuerza defensiva\, incluida la fuerza letal. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Lista de Equipo” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]\nPara el curso\, cada estudiante necesitará lo siguiente: \n\n Pistola confiable (podemos prestarle una si es necesario\, sin cargo)\n 100 rondas de munición de práctica confiable y de buena calidad (se puede comprar en CSA)\n Protección ocular y protección auditiva\n Paciencia\, buena actitud y una mente abierta.\n\nSi aún no posee un arma de fuego\, ¡no compre una antes de la clase! Nuestro curso CCP le brindará los conocimientos necesarios para tomar decisiones informadas sobre qué arma de fuego se adaptará mejor a sus circunstancias. Es mucho mejor tomar la clase primero usando una de nuestras armas de préstamo gratuito. De esa manera\, no harás una compra apresurada de la que luego te puedas arrepentir. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre las pistolas\, municiones u otros equipos necesarios para la clase\, no dude en ponerse en contacto con nosotros. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”¿Por qué entrenar con CSA?” tab_id=”why-train-with-csa”][vc_column_text]\nAlgunas de las mejores características de nuestra clase CCP incluyen: \n\n Cumplimiento inquebrantable de los protocolos de seguridad.\n Clases pequeñas con bajas proporciones de alumnos por maestro\n Instructores pacientes que pueden relacionarse con tiradores nuevos y no tradicionales.\n Atención al detalle e instrucción individualizada\n Un ambiente no intimidante\n Sin defensa política o retórica divisiva y polarizadora\n Atención adicional a los fundamentos y la aplicación práctica.\n Enfoque principal en contextos de autodefensa (a diferencia de la caza\, el deporte o la competencia)\n Máximo respeto por el tiempo\, las prioridades y las motivaciones de los estudiantes\n\nLa decisión de portar un arma de fuego para protegerse es importante. Entendemos que esta será la primera clase de entrenamiento con armas de muchas personas\, por lo que hacemos todo lo posible para que sea una experiencia positiva. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Regístrate ahora” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]¡Esperamos verte en clase!

We recommend full or compact sized guns for this class. Sub-compact guns are much harder to shoot all day. A second gun like the first one is a good idea in case the first one breaks.\nA quality strong side hip or appendix holster – either form fitted leather or kydex\, the holster must completely cover the trigger guard\, allow a full firing grip with the gun in the holster and remain open while the gun is drawn. PLEASE NO flimsy nylon or cloth holsters.\nA quality belt\, purposely designed to securely attach the holster to the belt and support the weight of a fully loaded pistol.\nAbout 550-600 rounds of quality training ammunition. If you can bring more do so\nAT LEAST 3 magazines or speed loaders with appropriate belt pouches for the spare magazines. The more magazines you bring\, the better.\nClothing appropriate for concealing a firearm (vest\, jacket\, windbreaker\, over-shirt\, polo shirt\, etc.). Holsters must be worn concealed. \nEye protection and hearing protection (we recommend electronic) and we recommend a ball cap or brimmed hat to keep brass from going behind your eye protection. \nComfortable shoes and clothing appropriate for the weather.\nRain gear (we train rain or shine)\, bug repellant\, and sun screen if necessary.\nA cooler with soft drinks\, water\, snacks and lunch will be needed\, for lunch on site. We will not be leaving the range for lunch.\n\nYou can bring a revolver to this course\, but we strongly recommend against it as they tend not to last a full day of intensive shooting.  \nIf you need help putting the above items together please contact us before the class. Info@CitizensSafety.com. \nAqil Qadir will be your lead instructor assisted by other CSA instructors. \nGenerally\, refunds aren’t issued\, so please be sure you can make the date before purchase.  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:CSA Gateway Instructor Certification Course (Slidell\, LA)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Are you an experienced shooter who wants to teach others about basic marksmanship and firearm safety? This is the course for you! Instructor candidates will learn to develop\, organize\, and teach a basic defense-oriented pistol curriculum in the paradigm of “gateway instruction” developed by Citizens Safety Academy.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nThis course teaches experienced shooters how to design\, organize\, and conduct a gateway (entry-level) pistol shooting course.  \nThere are many instructor certification courses available\, but most suffer from at least one of three common shortcomings. First\, they often spend too much time on shooting and not enough time on teaching how to teach. Second\, they often focus on teaching intermediate-level shooters without enough attention paid to the nuances of managing a class full of brand-new\, first-time shooters. Third\, many instructor courses tend to ignore the cultural and demographic dynamics of today’s market of firearms trainees.  \nWith the recent explosion of gun purchases by urbanites\, millennials\, trauma victims\, and others who don’t fit the traditional stereotypes of gun ownership\, firearms trainers must adapt to the rapidly-evolving 21st Century market. CSA developed what we call the “gateway” instructional model in an effort to fill those gaps in the training community.  \nInstructor candidates will learn and demonstrate organizational and teaching skills via participation in practical exercises during the course (including leading a line of live-fire shooters through a course of fire). Candidates will also have to pass an instructor certification examination and a shooting qualification course of fire. The course also includes an Instructor’s Guide that participants can take home with them for future reference.  \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/f968PvR1A8Y” el_width=”60″][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What is “gateway instruction“?” tab_id=”topics”][vc_column_text]When we say “gateway instruction\,” we mean true entry-level content\, designed for students who’ve overcome boundaries\, obstacles\, social disincentives\, or other adverse odds to learn to shoot for the first time. We have found that many “beginner” classes on the market are often weighed down by assumptions and misperceptions about what new shooters typically bring with them. These classes often take for granted that every student has the same opinion about guns\, everyone has the same understanding of gun safety\, and everyone generally understands how guns work and what they’re used for. But that’s often not the case. \nAt CSA\, we take a different approach. Gateway instruction levels the playing field by allowing all students to enter the firearms training world without any pressure to know more than they know\, or to be someone they aren’t. One of the many benefits of this teaching technique (and the reason we call it “gateway instruction”) is that it greatly increases the chances of students investing in more training and becoming members of the training community\, rather than just visitors or sightseers. We hope to be an “on-ramp” for those who might otherwise see themselves as outsiders to the gun world.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Topics Covered” tab_id=”1628349014244-f4941925-2c89″][vc_column_text]Every class is a little different\, so we often have to make adjustments based on time and facility constraints; but our standard Gateway Instructor curriculum includes the following: \n\nAdult learning theory\nEffective communication skills / public speaking\nDepoliticizing instruction\, content\, and facilities\nDesigning and using effective training aids\nConnecting with inexperienced\, fearful\, and non-traditional students\nMaking classroom lectures interactive and engaging\nEffective use of multi-media in the modern classroom\nConcepts from the pivotal text\, “Telling Ain’t Training\,” by Keeps and Stolovitch\nClassroom management\nRange management\nTeaching basic principles of lawful defensive force\nManaging students with past trauma or emotional triggers\nEffective assessment / written examination design\nHow to control and command a firing line\nThe “Less is More” principle\nEffective range commands\nStudent-centric range exercises\nDifferentiating between skill drills and performance drills\nManaging students with physical limitations or disabilities\nTeaching both left- and right-handed students\nManaging firing lines with revolvers and semi-autos of different action types\nEffective use of assistant instructors\nSafety protocols and emergency procedures\nAnd much more!\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment”][vc_column_text]For this class\, you’ll need: \n\nAn open  mind\nA positive attitude\nA reliable semi-automatic handgun (9mm or larger)\nRoughly 200 rounds of ammunition (ammo usage will depend on how many times we need to shoot the 25-round qualification course and how much time we have to shoot skill drills).\nEye and ear protection\nComfortable clothing appropriate for shooting (indoor ranges can be cold)\, brimmed hat/cap\, trimmed fingernails (no high-heeled or open-toed shoes or low cut blouses) snacks and water. If at an outdoor range\, weather appropriate attire\, bug spray\, snacks and water\nNotebook and pens or an electronic device (laptop/tablet) for note taking\n\nNote that you will NOT need a holster for the range exercises. We’ll send an email to all students within a week of class with more details on what to bring and what to expect.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Prerequisites” tab_id=”1628346266996-187710a0-a7dc”][vc_column_text]Instructor candidates must possess and demonstrate a solid background in firearm safety and shooting skills acquired through previous firearm training and/or previous shooting experience.

SUMMARY:TN Enhanced Handgun Permit Class
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]So you want to get your Enhanced Handgun Carry Permit? You’re in the right place! This is the eight-hour safety course required by the State of Tennessee to obtain a Enhanced Handgun Carry Permit (EHCP). Tennessee does not require a permit to merely own a firearm (for example\, if you keep one in your home). However\, if you want to carry a firearm on your person out in public\, you’ll need a permit. There are lots of people advertising permit classes nowadays. Before you sign up for the cheapest\, closest\, or shortest course you can find\, please consider what makes CSA unique.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Info” tab_id=”section-course-info”][vc_column_text]Some of the best features of our ECP class include: \n\nUncompromising adherence to safety protocols\nSmall classes with low student-teacher ratios\nPatient instructors who can relate to new and non-traditional shooters\nAttention to detail and individualized instruction\nA non-intimidating atmosphere\nNo political advocacy or divisive\, polarizing rhetoric\nExtra attention to fundamentals and practical application\nPrimary focus on self-defense contexts (as opposed to hunting\, sporting\, or competition)\nUltimate respect for students’ time\, priorities\, and motivations\n\nThe decision to carry a firearm for protection is an important one. We understand that this will be many people’s very first firearms training class\, so we go out of our way to make it a positive experience. We also want our ECP class to be the safest one in the state. Our students have these and many other qualities to look forward to when they register for ECP training with CSA. Please visit our ECP Class webpage for more details about what to do before class\, what to expect in class\, and what to do after class.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]This class includes several hours of classroom training and a mid-day trip to the range for live-fire. You’ll need: \n\nApproximately 100 rounds of ammunition (you can purchase that from us if necessary)\nA reliable defensive handgun (you can borrow one of ours if necessary)\nAttire\, outerwear\, and shoes appropriate for outdoor shooting\nA positive attitude\nAn open mind\nNote-taking materials\n\nIf you need to purchase ammo from us or use one of our handguns\, please contact us in advance to let us know so we can make sure we’re sufficiently stocked.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!

SUMMARY:OC Spray: Instructor Certification Course (Chuck Haggard)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]CSA is excited to welcome Chuck Haggard of Agile Training and Consulting for this unique one-day instructor certification course on OC spray and other less lethal tools. Chuck is nationally renown for his decades of experience with defensive use of oleoresin capsicum (O.C. spray or pepper spray). He personally designed this instructor course for private citizens who carry pepper spray regularly and aspire to teach others how best to utilize this essential tool.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nFrom Chuck Haggard:\nThis class was created as an instructor-level course for covering the subject of less-than-lethal options for non-cops/CCW carriers\, off-duty cops\, and security guards. This class is suitable for anyone wanting to take a deep dive into the subject of avoiding being the victim of a street crime\, or folks who are CCW or firearms instructors and who want to expand their knowledge base beyond the gun. \nAs I have noted in my short blocks on this subject at the Rangemaster Tactical Conference\, we should have options between “a harsh word and a gun.” \n\nThis class will run 8-10 hours\, depending on student numbers\, due to the extensive amount of drilling and material presented.\nThis course will cover the subject of less than deadly force defensive tools and tactics\, with an emphasis on OC spray as a defensive tool.\nAlso addressed are ways to avoid becoming a crime victim\, tactics of the street criminal\, and the MUC paradigm (Craig Douglas‘s concept of Managing Unknown Contacts).\nWe’ll also cover how less-than-lethal weapons come into play for avoiding becoming a victim of violent crime\, de-escalation tactics\, verbal agility\, transitioning to deadly force (if appropriate)\, product selection\, low light issues\, and interactive student scenario/skills drills.\n\nStudents will need to bring a dummy pistol and holster (if they are a CCW carrier\, instructor\, etc.) in order to fully participate in all of the drills. Otherwise only note taking materials are required. \nThere will be no live OC spray used in this training\, only inert training spray units.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Guest Instructor Chuck Haggard” tab_id=”chuck-haggard”][vc_column_text]Chuck Haggard has been active in private defensive training throughout his long career in urban law enforcement.

SUMMARY:OC Spray and Street Encounter Skills (Chuck Haggard)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]CSA is excited to welcome Chuck Haggard of Agile Training and Consulting for three separate classes over the course of one weekend in July. This Friday night class starts off the weekend and introduces attendees to simple techniques for avoiding crime and victimization. Chuck is nationally renown for his decades of experience with defensive use of oleoresin capsicum (O.C. spray or pepper spray). He designed this course for private citizens who want to have other tools in their tool chest besides guns.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nFrom Chuck Haggard:\nIn this three-hour class\, will we will be covering ways to effectively use OC spray\, how to select a quality product\, which spray to choose for YOUR needs\, and techniques to maximize OC’s effect. I’ll also discuss recognizing pre-criminal assault behavior\, avoiding being a victim\, and the “MUC” (Managing Unknown Contacts) paradigm (popularized by Craig Douglas of ShivWorks). \nThis class is great for people who do not carry a gun regularly or for those who just want to have mid-level defensive options that fall somewhere “between a harsh word and a gun” (h/t to Tamara Keel of View from the Porch). Other topics include non-lethal-versus-lethal-force decision making and home defense tools besides firearms (excellent information for teens\, college students\, or anyone who lives in a gun-free household).[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Guest Instructor Chuck Haggard” tab_id=”chuck-haggard”][vc_column_text]Chuck Haggard has been active in private defensive training throughout his long career in urban law enforcement.

SUMMARY:Permiso de Portar Arma
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]¿Interesado en obtener su permiso de portar un arma? Este curso de seguridad de seis horas satisface la capacitación mínima requerida por el Código Anotado de Tennessee. § 39-17-1366 para obtener un Permiso de Arma de Fuego Oculto (CCP). Tennessee no requiere un permiso para poseer un arma de fuego (por ejemplo\, si tiene una en su hogar). Sin embargo\, si desea llevar un arma de fuego oculta en su persona en público\, necesitará un permiso. Hay muchas personas que anuncian clases de permisos hoy en día. Antes de inscribirse en el curso más barato\, más cercano o más corto que pueda encontrar\, considere lo qué hace qué CSA sea único.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Información del Curso” tab_id=”course-info”][vc_column_text]\nTemas tratados en este curso: \n\n Reglas de seguridad de armas de fuego\n Características de las pistolas (nomenclatura)\n Usos y técnicas de armas de fuego\n Conocimientos y habilidades de armas para un manejo seguro\n Almacenamiento seguro básico de armas de fuego y municiones\n Métodos seguros de transporte y almacenamiento en vehículos\n Instrucciones de limpieza segura de pistolas\n Ley actual de Tennessee sobre el porte de armas de fuego\n Próximos pasos y opciones para más capacitación\n\nDado que la mayoría de las personas que toman esta clase planean obtener su permiso de portación\, el contenido del curso se adapta al contexto de la defensa personal (a diferencia de la cacería\, el tiro deportivo\, etc.). El porte oculto es muy diferente de otras aplicaciones de armas de fuego\, y nos encargamos de señalar esos matices. Más allá de la referencia mínima requerida por el estado a los estatutos relacionados con las armas de fuego\, también cubrimos las implicaciones legales de la fuerza defensiva\, incluida la fuerza letal. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Lista de Equipo” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]\nPara el curso\, cada estudiante necesitará lo siguiente: \n\n Pistola confiable (podemos prestarle una si es necesario\, sin cargo)\n 100 rondas de munición de práctica confiable y de buena calidad (se puede comprar en CSA)\n Protección ocular y protección auditiva\n Paciencia\, buena actitud y una mente abierta.\n\nSi aún no posee un arma de fuego\, ¡no compre una antes de la clase! Nuestro curso CCP le brindará los conocimientos necesarios para tomar decisiones informadas sobre qué arma de fuego se adaptará mejor a sus circunstancias. Es mucho mejor tomar la clase primero usando una de nuestras armas de préstamo gratuito. De esa manera\, no harás una compra apresurada de la que luego te puedas arrepentir. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre las pistolas\, municiones u otros equipos necesarios para la clase\, no dude en ponerse en contacto con nosotros. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”¿Por qué entrenar con CSA?” tab_id=”why-train-with-csa”][vc_column_text]\nAlgunas de las mejores características de nuestra clase CCP incluyen: \n\n Cumplimiento inquebrantable de los protocolos de seguridad.\n Clases pequeñas con bajas proporciones de alumnos por maestro\n Instructores pacientes que pueden relacionarse con tiradores nuevos y no tradicionales.\n Atención al detalle e instrucción individualizada\n Un ambiente no intimidante\n Sin defensa política o retórica divisiva y polarizadora\n Atención adicional a los fundamentos y la aplicación práctica.\n Enfoque principal en contextos de autodefensa (a diferencia de la caza\, el deporte o la competencia)\n Máximo respeto por el tiempo\, las prioridades y las motivaciones de los estudiantes\n\nLa decisión de portar un arma de fuego para protegerse es importante. Entendemos que esta será la primera clase de entrenamiento con armas de muchas personas\, por lo que hacemos todo lo posible para que sea una experiencia positiva. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Regístrate ahora” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]¡Esperamos verte en clase!

SUMMARY:TN Enhanced Handgun Permit Class
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]So you want to get your Enhanced Handgun Carry Permit? You’re in the right place! This is the eight-hour safety course required by the State of Tennessee to obtain a Enhanced Handgun Carry Permit (EHCP). Tennessee does not require a permit to merely own a firearm (for example\, if you keep one in your home). However\, if you want to carry a firearm on your person out in public\, you’ll need a permit. There are lots of people advertising permit classes nowadays. Before you sign up for the cheapest\, closest\, or shortest course you can find\, please consider what makes CSA unique.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Info” tab_id=”section-course-info”][vc_column_text]Some of the best features of our ECP class include: \n\nUncompromising adherence to safety protocols\nSmall classes with low student-teacher ratios\nPatient instructors who can relate to new and non-traditional shooters\nAttention to detail and individualized instruction\nA non-intimidating atmosphere\nNo political advocacy or divisive\, polarizing rhetoric\nExtra attention to fundamentals and practical application\nPrimary focus on self-defense contexts (as opposed to hunting\, sporting\, or competition)\nUltimate respect for students’ time\, priorities\, and motivations\n\nThe decision to carry a firearm for protection is an important one. We understand that this will be many people’s very first firearms training class\, so we go out of our way to make it a positive experience. We also want our ECP class to be the safest one in the state. Our students have these and many other qualities to look forward to when they register for ECP training with CSA. Please visit our ECP Class webpage for more details about what to do before class\, what to expect in class\, and what to do after class.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]This class includes several hours of classroom training and a mid-day trip to the range for live-fire. You’ll need: \n\nApproximately 100 rounds of ammunition (you can purchase that from us if necessary)\nA reliable defensive handgun (you can borrow one of ours if necessary)\nAttire\, outerwear\, and shoes appropriate for outdoor shooting\nA positive attitude\nAn open mind\nNote-taking materials\n\nIf you need to purchase ammo from us or use one of our handguns\, please contact us in advance to let us know so we can make sure we’re sufficiently stocked.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!
