NRA Handgun/Shotgun Instructor Development School

The curriculum is designed to prepare students to develop and conduct safe, effective, reality-based and

agency-related firearm training. Classroom instruction and practical exercises on the range provide a

model for students to use in building their own agency programs. In addition, the school will enhance

each student's firearm knowledge and handling skills. All classes and range exercises are conducted at the

instructor level, with students conducting many of the range exercises to gain experience. Students are

exposed to a wide variety of shooting techniques, training methods, and tactical philosophies, which

allows them to choose what best serves their students.
