"Probably the best initial experience for a new trainer is to team-teach a course with an
established, experienced training team or, as an alternative, to audit the course conducted
by such a team. This allows the new trainer to gain confidence and to see, first-hand,
how the course progresses smoothly from start to finish."
the NRA instructor rating is good for those working DoD and DoS security contracts. As for civvie side classes, it depends. Your course materials cost a bit more per student than CHL (I think roughly between 7 to 16 dollars per packet depending on the course. You can't get around that.) You'll get all this from your NRA counsel.
