Round count is a poor metric to judge a class by. I've done high round classes that were an absolute waste of my time. Some were great. Same with lower round counts.
The best training I've done didn't involve any live fire, but simunitions.
Question:Is it better to be a returning student or discount code? Or both? Whats the deposit either way?
Thanks

Wanted to share a pretty large discount code for Independence Training. This code is good for all courses until further notice. If you've ever wanted to get more firearms training, refresh your training or take your skill to the next level here's a chance to so that.
check out indpependencetraining.com, select a course and enter CORONAANDLIME at checkout.
Returning students always receive 50% off regular tuition to take a refresher course they've already taken and passed. This is to promote consistent training since nobody can retain everything taught across a one, two or three day class. Ever. We have very experienced people and even our cadre that regularly stand in on courses as students and are treated as such so they can continue to refresh skills and learn new nuggets from others.
If you've never taken a course that you're interested in (even if you have taken other IT courses) I'd suggest going with the discount code.
I'm unsure about the deposit protocol, please refer to the website or email them directly for more clarity.
In case anyone is still interested, the coupon code is still live but it won't be for much longer as things slowly get back to normal.
Independence is being welcomed back quickly to the ranges it regularly uses and is required to follow prescribed protocol per each individual range but that's not slowing training down.
Don't forget that now there are more force-on-force classes that get into vehicles, daily operations and structures as well as more courses designed to help build skills as a CCW/constitutional carrier around firearms safety and an individual med component. And remember, if a course maxxes out Glen will bring in additional instructors to make sure the ratio of students to teachers stays low.
Code to use on the website when registering is CORONAANDLIME. Also remember that once you take ANY course w IT that you can always come back and take a refresher at your discretion for HALF OFF. Forever.
Glen is a great guy, knowledgeable and a good teacher. I'm surprised to read that some think their prices are high? What prices are you seeing that are so much lower? My wife just did one of his carbine courses a few months ago and it was priced at or below anything else I found.... but admittedly, I haven't doing any training lately so not sure what's out there that is new.
Glen has said on his podcast that once the discount period is over, he will also be raising his prices. It's been a long time coming, as most folks familiar with the logistics of hosting or running a class know that range fees have gone up for quite some time now.
Yeah code must be discontinued. Training classes are selling out right now. If you're able to I'd sign up as soon as you are able. Remember that once you complete any IT course that you can come back and take the same course in the future for half off of whatever the current registration fee is. Forever. Nobody else in the industry offers that.
