Please note: VTG provides the training and certification only — you must begin your CCW application directly with your county sheriff’s department or issuing agency.
The training certificate doesn't expire, but you should complete your permit application promptly as requirements may change.
Our CCW course meets all California training requirements. However, permit approval is determined by your local sheriff's department based on their criteria.
California CCW permits are valid for 2 years. You'll need 8 hours of renewal training before expiration. We offer convenient renewal courses.
While we can't complete applications for you, we provide guidance on common sections and can review your application for completeness before submission.
