NROI offers training for three different certification levels and two endorsements. Here is an overview of the different certification levels.

Range Master application changes

June 4, 2020 by Troy McManus

NROI has updated the application process for the Range Master program.  In the past, applications have been received and evaluated throughout the year, but now applications will only be accepted between November 1 and December 31 of each year.  With a limited number of instructors, this timing allows for current students to complete their program during Nationals events throughout the year and make room for new students at the first of the year.

If you didn’t get the email, please login to your USPSA account and update your email address. It’s very important that your email address is up-to-date so you will get the link to your exam as well be notified annually for your renewal exam.

Bootcamp? What’s That?

April 2, 2019 by Kevin Imel

Bootcamp? Well, if you have visions of running five miles with a full size popper on each shoulder or overhead pressing wall sections, …wrong type of bootcamp. A few years ago NROI started field testing a new concept for the Level 2, Chief Range Officer course called a Bootcamp. This was the brain child of Instructor Ray Hirst and it entirely changed the way we do the CRO class now. Years ago, the CRO course was more about stage design, mostly in the classroom or by correspondence, and less about running a stage efficiently. That left us with a problem finding people that actually knew how to run stages at major matches. The Bootcamp format of the class changed all that.

The RO Seminar isn’t just for ROs

March 23, 2019 by Kevin Imel

So you have been enjoying the sport for a few weeks, months, or years and you say you have never taken the RO seminar because you don’t want to be an RO.

If you have been shooting for a while you probably have learned the rules, such as you know them, from fellow shooters and by watching others. But do you really KNOW the rules and are the rules you “know” really the rules? Maybe, maybe not.
