**Choose Your Fi****ms Instructor Wisely**
The first thing you need to determine is what kind of training you want to seek out. Are you looking to hunt, or is home defense your focus, is it personal protection or competitive shooting, are you looking for an instructor or a coach or just a simple firearm safety class?
1. SAFETY - Obviously the number #1
2. INSURANCE - Do they have liability insurance that covers them and you if something should happen.
3. QUALIFICATIONS Check their qualifications carefully, the more training from different sources the better, if they fail to list their qualifications you can bet there is a reason.
4. TESTIMONIALS & REVIEWS - Some of the best referrals come from satisfied customers so check their website, page or Google reviews.
5. REAL EXPERIENCE - What kind of real-world experience does your instructor have.
6. COST - We all want the best bang for our buck (see what I did there?).
7. FIRST AID TRAINING - None of us like to think that something could go horribly wrong and we get hurt in a class.
8. PROFESSIONALISM - There are a lot of good trainers out there and as stated before, they all have different styles, but being unprofessional is not a style.
9. THE LAW - One of the big reasons people take fi****ms classes is to know and understand the law.
10. DIVERSITY - Another important aspect is diversity of your instructor.
