Do I need a certificate to book this?

No, but you must be a licensed firearm owner. This course does not issue a certificate.

Holster work, target engagement, movement, and clearing malfunctions.

No. Skills Builder is non-accredited practical training, for real skill development, not a qualification.

What do I need to bring?

Your own licensed firearm and ammunition: GFT doesn't supply either. Eye protection and ear protection are your own too. Bring about 200 rounds for a handgun or self-loading rifle, 100 for a shotgun, or 60 for a manually operated rifle.

Training must be completed through an accredited training provider. Use our provider directory to find a provider in your area.
