IPSC ALBERTA
Black Badge Training       

Well to put it simply EVERY PERSON in Canada that competes in IPSC shooting MUST take a safety training course before they are allowed to compete in IPSC matches. 
This course is commonly known as Black Badge Training and IS NOT the same as the "Hunter Training Course" or the "FAC Training Course". 
The Black Badge Course is a (2) day course combining classroom lectures followed by live firing exercises. This course is designed to teach the new IPSC shooter how to SAFELY draw from a holster, reload on the move, proper range commands and much much more. The new shooter will come out of this course with a NEW sense of safe gun handling and a new respect for shooting skills. Black Badge Courses are taught on a floating schedule. Sometimes we'll wait till we have a small group organized and/or we can sometimes accommodate a one on one course. 
To find out when our next Black Badge Course is running please contact our Provincial Training Officer. 
Once a new shooter has successfully completed this course they can now Join IPSC ALBERTA! and compete in our Matches. 
If you have any questions or concerns regarding Black Badge Training feel free to contact our Provincial Training Officer, your Zone Director, or Section Coordinator.   .................. Next Course
