Latest News & Articles

Empowered & Armed: Women’s-Only Handgun Class at GTC

With women making up nearly half of new gun owners, the Women’s‑Only Handgun Class at GTC offers a beginner‑friendly, judgment‑free environment led by experienced female instructors. Participants learn foundational safety rules, California legal requirements, and basic handling techniques before applying skills in an immersive simulator lab. Real‑world scenarios and peer support build confidence and decision‑making under stress. Graduates leave empowered with both practical skills and a supportive community.

First Aid Training: Essential Skills for Non-Medical Personnel

When cardiac arrest or severe bleeding strikes, immediate bystander intervention can double or triple survival odds, yet non-medical personnel are often unprepared. First aid training empowers teachers, office staff, parents, and community members with essential skills—CPR/AED use, choking response, bleeding control, fracture management, and burn care. These techniques transform panic into confident action and bridge the gap until professional help arrives. Widespread training builds a culture of safety, resilience, and readiness in any setting.

Legal and Ethical Considerations in Armed Security Training

Armed security professionals face strict legal responsibilities and ethical obligations that go far beyond firearm proficiency. Proper training covers state regulations and the Use of Force Continuum, emphasizing when—and when not—to deploy force. Realistic, scenario-based exercises reinforce ethical decision‑making, de‑escalation techniques, and accurate incident documentation. This comprehensive approach ensures both compliance with BSIS standards and protection of public trust.
