All gun training and licensing IS NOT THE SAME. ISI and their instructors are unique in their vast…read moreexperience, and approach. The value in attending classes and training at ISI far exceeds all of the so-called competition. I am NOT paid to write this. I have true experience with ISI. I recognized the need to become familiar with firearms, and hand guns in particular. I had an incident with someone following me one late evening. I was a single mom with a teenage daughter and wanted to protect us. From the classroom to the gun range, ISI was at my side. The training was excellent! The encouragement throughout the process was honest and rewarding. ISI gave me the academic and hands on training not to fear using a firearm to protect myself and my family. This course was so important that I also sent my daughter when she became old enough to carry. I highly recommend ISI for your own protection and the protection of those you love.

I have been involved with Online Trading Academy as a student since Jan 2011 when I took my first…read moreclass in Charlotte. I was skeptical when I first signed up but over the last 4 1/2 years they have made a totally believer in what they teach and the integrity of the company. I have taken all their classes and I was one of the first students that they signed up in their mastermind community. There wasn't much to the mastermind community when I first signed up but this isn't a company that stands still but always looking to improve and make things better and better all the time. I have to say now it is a really good program and there are a lot of good things going on in there. I have NO REGRETS in buying into this education. ALL their instructors are top notch and many of them came right off the exchange floors. They don't have to teach. They have proven to me over and over again that they can pull what ever income they want out of the markets. They teach because of their desire to share and to help others achieve their goals. ALL the instructors and staff I have been involved with seem to have a strong moral backing and desire to do the right thing. This company has been very good to me as one of their students. This Is NOT a get rich scheme. 90% of people that attempt to trade in the financial markets FAIL. You will have to study and do your work. If you put in the work and the time to learn the concepts that is taught at Online Trading Academy the income potential really is unlimited. I don't say this to sound ridiculous but your only real limit is your account size and how much size you can put on a trade. I have seen some reviews say the futures and forex markets that we are taught to trade in is RISKY? I have to address that. If you are just throwing money around in leveraged markets then you can easily loose more money than you have in your account and it is risky if you don't know what the heck you are doing. RISK MANAGEMENT and proper position sizing are two important concepts that are taught by our instructors. We predetermine the maximum risk per trade and we are not allowed to go over that. Then we use precision entries based on supply and demand and follow strict rules on how we manage the trade. These instruments are only risky if you don't follow rules and size your positions properly. Kevin Green was one of the first instructors I listened to in the extended learning track (XLT) and I have been wanting to take one of his classes for a long time. He is also the general manager of the Houston center. I had the opportunity to come to Houston to take his class. I have to say that his center is sparkling clean and professionally operated. The Houston center seems to kick the high standards up a notch. Kevin puts an extra effort into providing as much information as possible in 5 short days. He pushes his students a little to grasp these concepts and to get as much out of the class as they can. This is one business that you have to be in the top 5% if you are going to make the dough and Kevin crams a lot of information into his classes. His motivation is the success of his students. He goes well above and beyond the call of duty. But Kevin is just one of many awesome instructors that give their time to us along with those in the Extended Learning Track program and in the MasterMind community. This is a profession just like any other. You won't learn it in a week. You have to work at it and put the effort in to learn how to be a successful trader. There is an entire community of us students and as one of my peers put it "you have to be part of the family to understand the family". I thought it was a lot of money when I signed up but NOWHERE are professional traders going to take you under their wings and spoon feed you this stuff for free. Come to think about it, I got a real bargain and I would do it all over again. Dennis Whitworth (Clover, SC)

I had the absolute best time in Gary's Beginner's Handgun & LTC combo class! We went over gun…read moresafety, gun laws, etc and Gary was very thorough and was sure to answer everyone's questions. He told stories to make the classroom time flyby and I was entertained the whole day. The gun range was a blast. I've never really liked guns and have always been scared of them so I went in super nervous, having only shot a gun a handful of times. By the end of the hour at the gun range, I felt so much more comfortable around guns, understanding how they operate, and more confident with my ability to handle one. I felt safe around Gary and the other students because he was so adamant about safety first. I would recommend this class to anyone!

He's been in the business for years and knows what he's doing and can be extremely helpful to you with training, and also can make sure that you select the perfect gun. My situation was really unique because he needed to teach me how to shoot with my non-dominant hand due to damage to my dominant hand. I know he was thinking, "This is going to be mighty interesting!" It was. Gary's patience helped me accomplish the mission at hand. It wasn't easy for me, and it was painful (for us both). But Gary hung in there with me with such a great attitude that I am forever grateful and recommend him to anyone who wants to learn Texas gun laws throughly, with a comical twist, and who wants to pass their LTC test and the range test. Get some rest the night before & be ready for a long day of excitement. Gary makes sure that you don't leave his class without knowing when & where you should carry your gun and there are many reminders to NEVER point a gun at anyone to play around. Gary's great personality and patience is just what you need. He is available for one-on-one or classroom instruction, by appointment. I plan to return for more range training from the best. Give him a call.

I have graduated from the 1300 hour program now so I have had ample time in this school…read more The amount of hands on practice you will get totally depends on you. Come in early to get more practice or stay late if needed. They are flexible with time. As long as you make the effort there is no problem. They push for you to use scrap metal from the Recycle bin daily to get the most use out of the metal. All you need is a beveled edge to weld so i am not sure what the real complaints are there. Even with the scrap pipe, there is always something to weld to, most time you just have to grind off a tack weld. People complaining about this are just lazy, there is PLENTY to weld on. As for complaints about Welding Rods, This is true, but this is all derived from the students again. If the students would Use the full rod instead of just burning the first 6 inches and trying to get a new rod this wouldn't be an issue. this is not an exaggeration... they will burn one rod doing one pass on some bevel plate then toss that rod for a new rod to run another bead so they don't have to work on their tie-ins. There is always plenty of gas to use for mig/flux and Tig. You can also work on a few side projects if you have time/motivation. My final note with this school is, if you do the 1300 hour program, there is really not much for you to do. It's just all extra practice. You have access to the High Frequency machine for doing some aluminium welding but there is really a limited amount knowledge from the instructors regarding aluminium welding. I learned most of what i know from youtube and trial and error. Plenty of time there at the school to try things, but not instruction when it came to aluminium. It would be nice if there were more exotic metals to work with for the 1300 hour program but they do not offer that, just additional time doing what you are doing in the 900 hour program. Pros: No limit to the amount of hands on you can do. You will use scrap a lot. Plenty of gas mig/flux/tig Cons: limited material types to use. (Carbon steel plate and pipe, stainless pipe, aluminum plate are all thats offered. There are a couple others for purchase tho.) Limited knowledge when it comes to aluminium welding from the instructors. Had fun, would recommend, Just don't be lazy, you have to burn to learn.
