Enhanced Concealed Carry

 
   Disclaimer: The purpose of the Enhanced Concealed Carry (ECC) course is to educate students in Idaho law as well as train them how to responsibly carry a concealed firearm, not to develop deep combat proficienciency (even though all students should develop the foundational skills required for proficiency after shooting the 98 rounds required by Idaho state law). Therefore, prior to taking the ECC course, it would benefit all students to enroll in training that introduces them to fundemental shooting practices. Such skills are taught in depth in our Basic and Intermediate Pistol courses. Students should also continue training even after participating in the ECC course.
