Just finished the Shotgun Instructor course, run by Scouter Rick, and I can recommend his courses to anyone.
Excellent overall. Thanks!

For starters, the Basic Training Instruction class and the associated exam have very little to do with firearms specifically. They're concerned with the NRA's policies and regulations for their training programs and about the fundamentals of training people. I've trained over a hundred people as NRA certified instructors, and not a single one has ever failed the Basic Instructor Exam. Most of the questions that people get wrong involve over-thinking a T/F question (e.g., exactly how literally do I take the qualification "never" or "always"?) or not reading a question carefully (e.g., overlooking a "not", or naming 2 of the 5 items on list A when the question asked for 2 of the 8 items on list B). My advice is to relax and just do it. It sounds as if you've already worried about the course and the exam more than could possibly be justified.
