Let me say a big "Thank you" to you and Chas for your constructive reply! I would like to clarify my post, because I was probably writing too quickly, being I had been without much sleep the last 24 hours. I just want to make sure I didn't misspeak and/or apologize if I did. (My post does sound a bit cocky).

1. I don't withhold their LTC certificate until they take my Basic Class. If they pass the Classroom portion, but not the Proficiency (after 3 attempts), I give them their Certificate, just without the bottom portion signed (obviously). Then I encourage (not require) them to take Basic from anyone qualified to teach and help them, and then to practice. They know I'm available to help. I have taught Basic Pistol to several students and didn't require payment from them, because they didn't have the funds and I just wanted to help them get better (I probably do this to a fault, but it's just the way I am. I love helping people).

Ok, I understood that they'd passed. After having failed the second I offer three choices. First, continue on and if they fail they'll have to redo the class.* Second, stop, take a basic class, come back and shoot their third attempt. Third, I'll let them know when I'm going to the range and they can join me for some informal training. Or do it with a buddy.

*Far as I can figure that's the requirement.

I am an instructor in the Dallas area, teaching a few years. And I totally agree with having basic pistol instruction before taking my class. And if and when they passed the course, if I'm not comfortable with their skill level, I schedule a 3 hour session (and charge them) before I give them their certificate. It's only the right thing to do, in my opinion.

You may feel it's the right thing to do but if they have passed both the written and proficiency tests I don't see that you have any legal right to withhold the certificate.
