CCW Certificate of Training

Once you have completed the live fire qualification shoot (Core CCW Skills class) and completed your E-Learning (first time applicants only), you will need to complete your CCW certificate with all your details (name, drivers license number, dates of training, and all firearms info). Whether you are a first time applicant, a renewal applicant, or simply adding a firearm to an existing permit, contact us on info@artifexfirearmstraining.com and request the link to the PDF Filler webapp where you’ll prepare your certificate. Be sure to download/save a copy for yourself once you are ready to submit it. Artifex Firearms Training will examine the certificate for accuracy of personal information, firearms information and training dates, and confirm when you are clear to upload it to the OCSD CCW portal (Permitium)

E-LEARNING FOR FIRST TIME CCW APPLICANTS

As part of your classroom training you are required to complete our Kajabi-based E-learning course, which covers firearms safety, the fundamentals of good shooting, penal codes governing carriage of firearms in California, and an introduction to the use of lethal force in self defense. For access to the E-Learning modules please contact us if you do not automatically receive your link on booking your CCW class..

CCW RECIPROCITY

Although California does not recognize any other State CCW permit, there are a bunch of States that will recognize your CA CCW. The USCCA website offers a great reciprocity tool, so CLICK HERE to check that out. Next, decide if you want to maximize your reciprocity. In order to do that, you should consider applying for a non-resident CCW permit for Arizona, Utah and Florida. These are all “shall-issue” states, so you will be successful providing you pass their background check. Arizona’s Dept. of Public Safety will accept your Artifex training certificate, but you’ll have to do a separate course for Utah and Florida, and for each of these states you’ll need to submit fingerprint cards. For further information we’ve provided embedded hyperlinks for Arizona, Utah and Florida.
