Illinois Concealed Carry Class
Overview
The Illinois Concealed Carry Class (CCL) is a 16 hour course taught by an Illinois State Certified Instructor and covers all of the requirements dictated by the State. After passing this class, students will receive the certificate they need when applying for their CCL.
While this is a concealed carry class, we place heavy emphasis on situational awareness and conflict avoidance.
This class requires students to pass a shooting qualification.
