Classes are listed as Seminars or Courses, what is the difference?
A. ‘Courses” are conducted over a period of three or more days. At the end of a course an evaluation drill is conducted and to graduate a student must meet a minimum level of competence, usually 80%. A “Seminar” is a highly condensed class of one or two days containing most or all of the material normally covered in a “course”. Because of the short duration of the class, there is no evaluation drill. Conducting a test would further reduce the limited training time. In addition, it would be unfair to expect students to “perform” the techniques learned at anything above a minimal skill level in so short a period of time, so a test would be meaningless. Q. I’m an experienced shooter and a graduate of the 345 Handgun Class at “XYZ”. I want to take the Tactical Handgun Seminar or Advanced Handgun Course with Chuck Taylor. Why do I have to take a basic course first? A. Our Three Day Defensive Handgun Course is not a basic course as normally defined. Requiring the Three Day as a prerequisite
