Online instruction followed by a live competency session

Arrow Security’s Concealed Carry Course uses a two-part format. Begin with approximately three hours of online instruction covering essential firearm-safety practices and Arizona concealed-carry topics. After completing the online portion, attend the required live instructor-led competency session.

The current registration listing says Arrow completes course paperwork and fingerprinting during the live session. Both portions must be completed to finish Arrow’s course; completing the online lessons alone does not complete the program.

What students will learn

The current online curriculum combines firearm-safety principles, Arizona law, responsible decision-making, and permit next steps.

Arizona weapons law

An introduction to Arizona misconduct-with-weapons law as presented in the current online curriculum.

Alcohol and law-enforcement contacts
