NEW! NRA Trainer's Guide: Updates to Revision 3-08

The NRA Training Counselor Program

The NRA Training Department is pleased to announce the following NRA Training Counselor Workshops. These workshops consist of an enhanced and informative curriculum based on the training philosophy of Total Participant Involvement, and incorporate the latest up-to-date interactive training methods. Training counselor workshops are designed to provide experienced instructors and current training counselors with the skills necessary to train NRA Certified Instructors how to teach people to shoot according to NRA's nationally recognized training standards. In special discipline-specific training sessions you will acquire hands-on practice using the innovative and NRA Training Counselor Guide.

NRA Training Counselors are experienced, active NRA member-instructors who have been appointed by the NRA to train NRA Certified Instructors. Training counselors make a commitment to conduct at least one instructor training course per year. At the workshop, you will have the opportunity to obtain in-depth training in how to teach discipline-specific teaching skills. Training counselors are authorized to train instructors in those disciplines in which they are certified as NRA instructors in conducting NRA Basic Firearm Training Courses.
