Attempted three times to contact someone over the phone. Left a message once, no success yet. Not such a great first impression so room for improvement perhaps.

Mostly well put together. Small gaps in some slide flow but overall pretty good. Videos were good. Some (like cleaning and different pistol types) got a little dry. Other ones were good.

I have not finished all of the training videos but everything else is gone very well. I'm wondering when I'm going to receive my card.

About Concealed Coalition

Written by the company

Concealed Coalition is a U.S.-based firearm training organization that provides state-compliant concealed carry education and safety instruction for eligible adults. The company connects individuals with certified instructors and structured training programs designed to meet state-specific permitting requirements.

The organization operates through a nationwide network of instructors and an online platform that allows individuals to register for courses, review state guidelines, and access educational materials. Concealed Coalition does not issue permits directly; concealed carry permits are issued solely by the appropriate state or local authority following successful completion of required steps.

The training process typically includes classroom or online education covering firearm safety fundamentals, applicable laws, and responsible ownership principles. In many states, instruction may also include a live-fire qualification component conducted by a certified instructor in accordance with state regulations.

Permit approval decisions are made exclusively by the relevant issuing authority and are subject to background checks and statutory eligibility criteria. Completion of a training course does not guarantee permit issuance.

Concealed Coalition provides educational resources to help individuals understand evolving state laws, reciprocity considerations, and responsible firearm storage practices. The company emphasizes legal compliance, safety awareness, and informed decision-making throughout the training process.

Operating nationwide, Concealed Coalition supports individuals seeking structured firearm education through a standardized, compliance-oriented framework designed to align with current state requirements.

US Veteran, weapons safety and prior hunter's safety training. No panic here. However, responsibility and civil obligations about conceal carry, should not be presented as wild west cowboys privilege.
Keep calm and focus why rights are being infringed. Thank-you.

Very well put together

Very well put together. Five years ago Ohio went the same route with the concealed carry. I went through the training at a location that was not very comfortable. And definitely not as through. Then, out illustrious governor decided it was too much of a burden on the gun owners to have to go through this. So, after what I considered a small.fortune got rid of the concealed carry requirement. Now I’m past the date and it’s expired. So, here I am

his internet post was totally dishonest and incomplete on the process. They take your money and then tell you the process which in my case was not able to do. If I would have known the process, I would not have went along with it. I believe this was a total scam.

Honestly , the complete experience of getting a CCW was made easier by signing up with concealed coalition. They gave me the peace of mind knowing that i was in good hands.

We also have supplemental, online, firearms education materials available to course attendees.
