Training ..... the act, process, or method of one that trains or the skill, knowledge, or experience acquired by one that trains or the state of being.
  Most agree the “T” word invokes images of work, time, blood and sweat, having to use your mind or learn something new however your State Association would like you to consider a paradigm shift in the common attitude toward an unfamiliar learning curve.  So let us now add another part to that definition above....FUN.
Several years ago, after hearing of some of the comments from many students we set out to seriously tighten up training standards ...both for the teacher and for the training facility.
  Your State Association has now established proprietary courses, which encourage quality and comprehensive firearm and situational training through a focused subject curriculum.  We also highly recommend and offer the tried and true NRA education programs.  We also endorse other programs like CMP military firearms training, and basic approaches to training like the Appleseed training.  
  The ASRPA has been in the firearms competition and instruction arena since 1909 and we have urged many to receive and continue basic training by competing and seeking advanced courses in their quest to continually better themselves.
  We believe, NOW MORE THAN EVER, our Country needs a well trained militia.  Contact us for any information you might have on your or your families training.
  ASRPA offers most NRA, ASRPA, and CMP courses, including NRA Instructor programs, through our ASRPA Certified Training Centers.  This logo assures the student will receive quality training from experienced facilities and trainers that adhere to a high standard and teach strictly according to the lesson plans proven to be successful. 
Look for the ASRPA Certified Training Centers and know the State Association recognizes their facilities, trainers, and ability to offer quality services.

 Over a decade ago, one seeking to obtain a State Issued Concealed Carry Permit had to attend and pass a well designed, standardized, and comprehensive course dealing with all aspects of self/family defense issues.
Due to Arizona legislation passed and signed into law in 2010-11, about all one needs to do is fork over $65 to DPS for a background check and furnish some sort of certificate that says you are a safe gun handler....this is dangerous and can get you in trouble very quickly.  Don't jeopardize your reputation, personal assets, savings, and your life by not being expertly and comprehensively trained.  If you have, or do not have a State Permit, you need to take Michael P. Anthony’s Defensive Use of Firearms.
