Get the legal knowledge you need—right from home.
Our Instructor-Led DC Laws on Firearms and Self-Defense Virtual Course is specifically designed for active or former military members and law enforcement officers who are exempt from the 16-hour firearm safety training requirement for the DC Concealed Carry License.
Even with your exemption, DC law still requires you to complete a certified course covering the District’s firearm statutes, use-of-force rules, restricted locations, transportation laws, and key legal responsibilities. This class delivers all of that in a convenient, streamlined, and interactive online format.
