    Anyone heard current status of the On-Line LTC classes? DPS was really..."confused" as to what and how they were to be instituted. Big mistake in my opinion...but lawmakers know best.

    Ya can get an "ONLINE" license from Virginia here: http://onlinecarrytraining.com/texas
    Which Texas honors.....

    DPS site says:
    An applicant may attend LTC classroom training and demonstrate handgun proficiency (shooting) with a Texas Qualified LTC Instructor, or

    An applicant may receive LTC online training (classroom only) through an Approved Online Course Provider who has been approved in Texas. After, successfully passing the online classroom portion, an applicant must attend 1-2 hours of range instruction class and demonstrate handgun proficiency (shooting) with a Texas Qualified LTC Instructor.

    and

    House Bill 3784 Effective: September 1, 2017

    Caption: Relating to certain applications to obtain a license to carry a handgun and to the associated handgun proficiency course.

    • This bill allows the department to certify an approved online course provider who has at least three years' experience in providing online course instruction, experience working with government entities, and has direct knowledge of handgun training. In addition to the qualifications, an approved online course provider must be qualified to instruct persons in 1) Laws that relate to Weapons/Use of Force 2) Safe Storage 3) Non-Violent Dispute Resolution and 4) Handgun Use and Safety (including use of restraint holsters). An approved online course provider can offer classroom instruction portion of the handgun proficiency requirement and administer the written exam to applicants online by utilizing a secured web portal.
    As of yet my search turned up NO "approved" ONLINE provider for a TEXAS LTC license.
