Re: Instructor Renewal in Houston

I did the online requal in 2011 and was told then that I would have to shoot this requal. They told us in the class that in 2015 we would again get to requal online. Were there any old timer Instructors who went through the full requal in 2011 and only have to do the online requal this year?

Are they really holding 4/5 Instructors classes a year with 150 per class? My goodness...."back in my day", there was only one class a year in August and there were 200 in the class. Do we really need 600-750 new Instuctors a year added to the rolls. If we keep this up, the students will charge US to teach them.

I figure they need to average 200+ at each renewal class to certify the existing instructor base.

That is all the room will hold. They said there are 3000+ instructors and 1/2 that amount needing requal. There are alot of Instructors that have not initiated the renewal process.

Re: Instructor Renewal in Houston

Just finished up the Houston class today. We too finished up at 7pm. 80 in the class. If you keep the questions down it might not last as long. There is always one or two that ask the "what if" type questions. Good Instructors and real friendly group of CHL Instructors. Best lunch is the Sams across the street and get the $1.50 hotdog combo. Allow for traffic. The class started at 8am even though the DPS sheet said 8:15. Now I go to Pearland on the 29th to shoot with Charles...and I'm finished.
