Planning to host your own CCW course?

Desert Patriot Training offers flexible, private CCW instruction designed to meet you where you are. We provide our 2.5–3-hour Arizona Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) course either at your location or at our facility, making it convenient for groups, families, churches, and community organizations.

We can bring the class directly to your home, church, or approved meeting space that will turn into a comfortable classroom-style setting such as a living room or fellowship hall.

A minimum of 5 participants is typically required (depending on location). We serve primarily in Cochise County but will also serve Pima, Maricopa and more.

Upon completion, this course provides the qualifying instruction and documentation needed to apply for your Arizona CCW permit, which is recognized for concealed carry in approximately 30+ states.

Course topics include firearms safety, proper handling, transportation and storage, ammunition fundamentals, self-defense principles, applicable firearms laws, and concealed carry techniques. Instruction is led by a certified NRA Instructor who is available to answer questions throughout the class.
