Instructor Renewal

[switch]

Seems like it's time for DPS to invite us to renew. Anyone heard anything?

[kg5ie]

Got my renewal letter today.
Just says to complete application and follow steps on checklist.

[kg5ie]

Ok. Made my application. Email checklist reply called for ltc-90 only.
and Instructor certificate. No mention of ltd-100 proficiency attest by another instructor. I submitted what they requested. We shall see.

[AF-Odin]

Me too. Letter arrived in mail at 1100 this morning and I went on line and got all done in about an hour after receipt. Biggest issue was going through old paperwork to find my original date of NRA Pistol Instructor qual for the LTC-90. Current NRA quals for all disciplines run for another year before I have to renew those.

My printed email said I would get an email from the fingerprint company. I did not get this. Did anyone else get a fingerprint email?

[AF-Odin]

Nope, think it was boilerplate, only email I got was for the LTC-90.

[deertrax]

Same here. The online application receipt referenced an email to schedule fingerprints. The emailed submitted application confirmation message only shows the LTC-90. Received an emailed confirmation of all docs received the next day.

[kg5ie]

Nope, same here. No email for prints. Are we not shooting this go-round?

Nope, same here. No email for prints. Are we not shooting this go-round?

Looks like we are. I received this email today:

Our records show that your Instructor Certification expires on 12-31-2019. We are still missing your Proficiency Demonstration (LTC-100). The requirement is that you shoot with another LTC Certified Instructor. You must shoot the LTC Course of Fire with both a revolver and a semi-automatic handgun. Once you have received a passing grade using both handguns, a LTC-100 must be completed and submitted. The shooter’s information will be entered as the student and the grader’s information will be entered as the Instructor. The only portion that should be left blank is the classroom information. Be sure to enter the range address and sign at the bottom of the page.

[AF-Odin]

Have not received that email yet. No big deal, just wish RSD would be a little more clear in what we have to do. Prof Demo was not on the checklist.

[kg5ie]

Per the website buried two clicks deep it says we do have to submit an ltc-100 and shoot both revolver and semi.

Thanks Bill. Like I said earlier, wish RSD was a little more exact in their information.

If you don't want to wade thru the clicks. It's vastly different from what they mailed out.

Instructor Renewal 2019

All Instructors with a certificate that expires on December 31, 2019 must submit a renewal application.

Instructor Renewal period will open between July 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019.

However, you are only required to submit one set of supporting documents. View instructions for submitting a Renewal For Online Course Providers (OCP).

Along with a paid renewal LTC instructor application, you must submit:

Applicants are NOT required to submit a handgun (range) proficiency if they ONLY hold an Online Course Provider certification.
Proof of valid firearms instructor certification
Examples of Proof of valid firearms instructor certification include:
TCOLE Firearm Instructor Certificate
NRA Firearm Instructor Certificate
Nationally Accepted Handgun Instructor Certificate

Thanks for posting the link!

After you shoot the proficiency, does it matter who submits the LTC-100? Can I do it for myself, after the other instructor signs it, or does he have to submit it?
