That's what they did here. Only HPD can certify the instructor.

So therefore, no certification=no instructor=no permit

But you guys knew that right?
What, Me Worry?

You would be surprised how oblivious people are.
Better to over-explain than assume that everyone gets the message.

Emergency regulations on concealed weapons instructors recently proposed by the California Department of Justice caused pushback from some law enforcement agencies.
-----------
Warning! Slippery ground ahead!
This kind of legislation should set off all kinds of alarms.
What would be the next instructor to be de-certified?
History teachers? Social studies teachers? They might teach old fashioned traditional things like civil rights.
Maybe metal shop teachers since they could teach people how to make a sharp tool that might hurt someone.

Even cops realize this is not a good idea.

This seems to be what Hawaii is going to do.  Minus the pushback from law enforcement. ::) ::)

I heard that the HPD fire arms instructors were trained by the NRA around a year ago.
Can anyone verify this?

Just a guess here...
I think every firearms instructor in America has had training from the NRA in some way, shape or form.

The thought of somebody in the police dept dictating that they are the sole certifiers of firearms instruction is just arrogant and insulting.

Why would a police department feel they are the ones that need to "certify" firearm instructors?

Are they looking for instructors willing to rat out their students?

Because what is the difference between an NRA certified Firearms Instructor and an NRA Certified Firearms Instructor "certified" by a police department?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the PD wanted to require firearms instructors to include a portion of their class dedicated to mental health education or something like that.
The theory being that since many firearm deaths are the result of suicide or mental health problems then the instructors will somehow magically persuade a crazy person not to shoot himself (or herself) or anybody else.

ie. the PD wants firearm instructors to be mind readers or at the very least, psychology instructors.
The PD is asking firearms instructors to teach a subject they are not qualified to teach.

An analogy would be to ask your high school drivers-ed teacher to also teach students how to drive an 18 wheel semi or perhaps fly a cessna.

Does that sound about right?

NRA has a Law Enforcement tract for firearms training and instructors.  Their LE instructor course I believe is a week long while the civilian version is 1 or 2 days.  Most police departments, along with HPD, use this training.

Hifico told them this that it opens the instructor to liability for teaching mental health stuff. As usual, they dont care and probably welcome it.

Have they denied any instructors without good cause?
