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.

Wasn't happy at all
Wasn't happy at all. Your website was not clear about the 8 hour class until you paid the money and then none of the classes were in my area. When I called and ask for a refund you refused to refund the 99.00 for the class. It is a total rip-off and not worth the cost. I can take class in my hometown and not drive 90 minutes.
