This is my first permit
California requires 16 hours of instruction and a live-fire qualification before the Sheriff will issue you a permit. Do the hours in a classroom, online, or half of each.
Online options from $559
I am renewing
A renewal is 8 hours of instruction and a range qualification. Finish both in a single visit, or do the hours in a classroom or online and qualify on a Monday.
One day, outdoor range
I only need to qualify
Adding a pistol to a permit you already hold, a BSIS qualification, or a qualification you still owe us. No classroom time.
Monday evenings, Kearny Mesa
Still not sure? Read how the San Diego permit process works, start to finish. You will need your Sheriff’s conditional approval before you attend any class.

For people who already know what they need. Everything on this list also appears on one of the three pages above.
The 8-hour renewal course is $249 and the 16-hour first-permit course is $499. Neither has a date because neither needs one. Start whenever, finish whenever, then book the live-fire session that goes with it.
Dates fill in the order they are booked. If a class shows no seats, ask to be told when the next one opens: info@ccwusa.com.
