Your Public Profile & Shooting Classes History
Many students like to share their shooting experiences through social media and with friends and family. On ShootingClasses.com, you have your own personal “Public Profile” that can be shared via a web link we call your “Vanity URL.”
Sharing your Vanity URL lets friends see your:
- Profile picture

When you’re signed into your profile, you can select which information you want to share or keep private.
Create Personal Training Goals
We are commonly asked what classes a student should take after a Basic or CCW permit class or when looking for advanced training. This is a great question, because we strongly believe training is a continuous process. Our motto is: Always a Student. When you stop learning, your skills will degrade.
The path you take next will depend on your goals – personal or home defense, sport, competition, or other interests.
Regardless of objectives, virtually all individuals share a common desire to protect themselves and their families. For this reason, we have provided an initial “Goal” for Defensive Training. Since course titles vary greatly from instructor to instructor, we have created recommended steps or milestones to look for within a course when searching classes to meet a training goal.
As you take classes, you can keep track of completed milestones and your progress in achieving each step of the training Goal.
We realize many of you would like to see additional goals created for other shooting disciplines. Please contact us to let us know your goals so we can create additional checklists.
