I get countless emails and posting on forums that ask me why my course is better than the other "cheaper" courses that people can take on the web. The answer is simple. QUALITY! Yes this course cost more, but it is SO much more than just a 30-45 minute video with a 10 question quiz at the end. The Cedar Valley Firearms Training Online Permit to Carry Weapons course has countless resources for each participant that they can take with well beyond any 45 minute video course. Plus I offer bonus material that if you have interest in a particular area, you can venture off on your own. My online class covers the same material that I offer in my face to face classes plus the added benefit of starting and stopping as much as you would like. People with busy schedules LOVE MY ONLINE COURSE! Here's one of those customer's comments.
"Course went smoothly, I do like the fact that I was able to split it into two sessions as I have been very busy. Overall I see nothing to add to the course. I really like the suggestions you had in the last module to advance and continue training." Joseph H.
"I enjoyed it overall as it was something I could complete at my own pace. It was nice to be able to take a break and really think about things for a while. I think it will help with retention." Lyle D.
So if you're serious about taking an online class to get your Iowa Permit to Carry Weapons, make sure you take it from a REAL course, and not one of the many OUT OF STATE (did I mention all most other online classes are out of state businesses?) SIT AND WATCH THIS BORING VIDEO courses that are out there. I've got TONS of very satisfied customers that were glad that they did take their course from Cedar Valley Firearms Training. Here are some comments from a few more!
"I thought the course was very thorough. I had a co-worker take the face to face training and we compared our experiences. I feel like I learned more from the online course taking it at my own speed than what she learned in the 3-4 hours training that she received in person. I was able to absorb the information and take my time reading and understanding all of the information. I'm glad that I did the online course instead of attending an in person training." Jennifer T.
"Very informative. Glad I took your course over the cheaper less informative ones that others I know have taken." Caitlin J.
"I really enjoyed this class. I'm glad I found a high quality class that I could take online. I had heard about online classes that only took a few hours to complete and that cost less, but after doing some research, I quickly discovered those classes weren't going to teach me as much. I took a lot of knowledge away from this class. I appreciated the videos because it breaks up the reading. I also enjoyed the link to the article about CCW for women." Carissa O.
I'm here to help future CCW permit holders in the state of Iowa with advice on how to carry, what to carry and where to get training.

Concealed Carry for Women?
ABSOLUTELY! I often get into discussions with women thinking about getting their permit. Most of the time I get comments like:
"I don't feel the need to carry" or "my husband has his permit" or just "I feel safe".
I believe that this way of thinking is dangerous. I mean, of course, I even feel safe most of the time. That's why I live where I do. If I didn't feel safe, then I'd go somewhere I did feel safe. But just because you "feel" safe doesn't mean that you are. The problem is that bad people are real, and bad things can happen anywhere! Would you take out the fire alarms in your house because you don't think it can happen to you? Of course not!
If your husband has his permit, you probably feel safer, but what if your husband isn't there? Who will protect you or your children. I don't know about you, but I'm not with my wife all of the time. I wish I could be, but that's impossible. Be responsible for your own safety!
The last statement of "I feel safe" is the one that gets me. You feel safe now, but what if you get get threatened while at work, or you find someone is stalking you on FaceBook. What will you do then? Yes, you can then get your permit, but it can take days, even weeks to get through training and then to get your permit from your local sheriff's office. Do you really want to wait to get your permit until you need it?
With training, CVFT has you covered! What's nice about taking an online course is that you can take it anytime! I even have an article in my course that discusses concealed carry options for women. And if you need your certificate fast, I can (and will) send you a digital version to you in email if you need it quickly.
My advice, get your training and then apply for your permit even if you may think you don't need it. You may need or want to be able to carry someday and if you don't already have your permit, it's too late.
