Additional Information

This HR 218 certification course is designed for qualified active and retired officers seeking annual firearm qualification under the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA). Often referred to as HR218 or LEOSA certification, the course includes the required firearm qualification conducted by a certified firearms instructor in accordance with applicable standards for qualification.

 

LEOSA, including 18 USC 926C for qualified retired officers and related federal provisions for active officers, permits eligible individuals to carry concealed firearms notwithstanding certain state law restrictions, subject to limitations under federal law and other applicable regulations. Participants should understand that LEOSA does not supersede all state and local laws and does not authorize carry in locations prohibited by federal law, on certain state or local government property, or where otherwise restricted by law.

 

Eligible retired officers must meet current firearm qualification requirements and carry the documentation required by LEOSA, commonly referred to as an HR218 card or LEOSA qualification record, as applicable. The course is intended for individuals who served as law enforcement officers for a state or local government and whose duties included the prevention, detection, investigation, prosecution, or incarceration of persons for violations of law, or who were authorized to engage in or supervise the prevention, detection, investigation, prosecution, or incarceration of persons for violations of law.

 

Students will receive general information regarding the Officer Safety Act LEOSA, applicable state law considerations, firearm qualification standards, and the interaction between federal protections and state and local laws. Successful completion may satisfy the annual firearm qualification requirement for eligible participants, subject to applicable agency, state, and federal requirements.
