Re: My First 4 Hour Class

A lot of renewal classes did not cover everything. In fact, around here, many renewals were achieved by simply attending the first half of a full-day class and then qualifying on the range.

I think some of us who are accustomed to packing 9 hours full of information (and not just videos and war stories) are finding it a bit of a challenge to pare it down to four hours without feeling pressed for time. Not that we won't get there - the new DPS Course Outline may help - but some are still finding it a challenge regardless of how others may or may not have been teaching it for years.
According to numerous posts from Chas, doing the class in four hours shouldn't be a problem at all.

Well, instructors have been able to cover the same necessary material in 4 hours for their renewal students for almost 20 years.
:iagree: not sure why this is such a big deal.
