The National Rifle Association of America (NRA) is pleased to announce the release of its most recent update to the NRA Range Development and Operations Online Course. The course is comprised of 12 lessons, including a new module with an overview of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as it pertains to shooting ranges.

“ADA is an important, often overlooked, topic for range owners to be aware of,” Joe Logar, the national manager of NRA Adaptive Shooting Programs said. “The overview in the updated NRA Range Development and Operations Online Course provides enough information to be valuable for clubs and ranges, without being overwhelming.”

This online course is designed to educate potential and current range owners and operators in identifying potential problems associated with range development, environmental issues and safety. Students in the course will receive a multidisciplinary perspective on major topics, including the following:

  • Indoor Range Construction 
  • Outdoor Range Construction
  • Environmental Management
  • Sound Abatement
  • Community Relations
  • ADA Compliance
  • Ventilation
  • Funding and Grants

“NRA Range Services is pleased to offer this up-to-date online learning opportunity for new and potential range owners,” Liz Bush, the managing director of NRA Community Engagement said. “This revised online course expands NRA’s educational offerings while giving range facilitators the tools they need to maintain the highest level of safety possible."” 

Registration for the online course is $300, which includes downloads of all course materials and a copy of the NRA Range Source Book on a USB thumb drive. Visit this link to get started today.

Upon completion of the course, you will receive a completion certificate that you can save and/or print. In addition, you will have access to the program for 30 days from the start of your enrollment date before your access will expire.
