Engineered to meet the demands of NRA Certified Instructors and students alike, the improved Basics of Pistol Shooting Program places NRA Certified Instructors in the driver’s seat. Based on valuable feedback from our corps of dedicated instructors and training counselors nationwide, the NRA has introduced an Instructor Led Training (ILT) edition of the program, and will continue to offer the existing Blended Learning version. Most importantly, both versions of the course will be conducted entirely under the direct supervision of an NRA Certified Instructor. For more information about the NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting Program, as well as all of NRA’s legendary training courses, and information concerning how to become an NRA Certified Instructor, visit nrainstructors.org.
