Join the Next Group Firearms Class

Join the Next Group Firearms Class

CCW Training Academy forms each Group Firearms Class when enough students with compatible schedules are ready to attend. These classes serve students throughout Lake, Sumter, and Marion Counties, including The Villages, Leesburg, Lady Lake, Summerfield, and Ocala.

This system avoids scheduling a Group Firearms Class before sufficient enrollment exists and allows us to compare the availability of interested students before proposing a date.

You have two ways to join an upcoming group class:

  • Priority Registration: Review the current price in the secure shopping cart, pay in advance, and receive first consideration when the next compatible Group Firearms Class is formed.
  • Group Class Planning List: Tell us which class interests you and when you are available without making a payment. You will be contacted if space remains after Priority Registrants are accommodated.

Priority Registration: Reserve Your Place Now

Priority Registration is intended for students who are ready to take a class and want first consideration when the next compatible group is formed.

Select your course below and open its secure shopping-cart page to see the current price. The price is shown in the shopping cart rather than on this page so that you always see the current amount.

Opening a shopping-cart page does not charge you. Payment occurs only after you review the price and approve the transaction.

After registering, you will be contacted when enough students with compatible availability are ready. CCW Training Academy will propose a date before finalizing the class. You are not required to accept a date that you cannot attend.

Priority Registrants are contacted before people on the Group Class Planning List.

Your Payment Is Protected Before a Date Is Confirmed

Until you accept a proposed class date, you may remain registered for a later class, apply your full payment toward another CCW Training Academy course, or request a full refund.

Once you accept a confirmed class date, CCW Training Academy’s normal cancellation, rescheduling, late-arrival, and no-show policies apply.

We use these responses to identify students who are interested in the same class and have compatible schedules. When enough Priority Registrants are ready and a proposed date has been selected, we may contact people on the Planning List if seats remain.

Joining the Group Class Planning List does not require payment, create an obligation to attend, or reserve a seat. Available seats are offered to Priority Registrants first.
