Attempted three times to contact someone over the phone. Left a message once, no success yet. Not such a great first impression so room for improvement perhaps.

Mostly well put together. Small gaps in some slide flow but overall pretty good. Videos were good. Some (like cleaning and different pistol types) got a little dry. Other ones were good.

I have not finished all of the training videos but everything else is gone very well. I'm wondering when I'm going to receive my card.

About Concealed Coalition

Written by the company

Concealed Coalition is a U.S.-based firearm training organization that provides state-compliant concealed carry education and safety instruction for eligible adults. The company connects individuals with certified instructors and structured training programs designed to meet state-specific permitting requirements.

The organization operates through a nationwide network of instructors and an online platform that allows individuals to register for courses, review state guidelines, and access educational materials. Concealed Coalition does not issue permits directly; concealed carry permits are issued solely by the appropriate state or local authority following successful completion of required steps.

The training process typically includes classroom or online education covering firearm safety fundamentals, applicable laws, and responsible ownership principles. In many states, instruction may also include a live-fire qualification component conducted by a certified instructor in accordance with state regulations.

Permit approval decisions are made exclusively by the relevant issuing authority and are subject to background checks and statutory eligibility criteria. Completion of a training course does not guarantee permit issuance.

Concealed Coalition provides educational resources to help individuals understand evolving state laws, reciprocity considerations, and responsible firearm storage practices. The company emphasizes legal compliance, safety awareness, and informed decision-making throughout the training process.

Operating nationwide, Concealed Coalition supports individuals seeking structured firearm education through a standardized, compliance-oriented framework designed to align with current state requirements.

Thank you for reaching out with your concerns, Samay! We do not issue permits directly because we are not a government agency. We provide training courses and guided steps for permit application through the local issuing authority in your state of residency. If you need assistance with your training certification or next steps, please give our team a call directly at 800-990-5594! We would be happy to help. If you are referring to the permit itself, we recommend that you contact your local issuing authority to verify the status of your application. 🙌

I like the convenience of an online class since I am caring for my elderly mother and cannot leave for long periods to complete an in person class. Videos were well done and engaging so I didn’t get bored. I feel confident I can comply with the law while being able to keep me and my family safe.

The convenience is unmeasurable

The convenience is unmeasurable. I am constantly on the go. The time can be alotted whether I am on a business trip or at home. I have enough time to get the husbandly as well as the fatherly duties completed and still have enough time to further educate myself on issues such as home protection. Thank you and keep up the great work.

If I could give a no star I would

If I could give a no star I would. Poor customer service and hidden fees. Beware of this company they will take your money and then act aggressively after you want to cancel services. I would not recommend this company to anyone. I disputed with my bank and I got my refund back from the bank. No service no money.
