NEW LTC CURRICULUM

New LTC/FID Curriculum rolls out April 2, 2026

Greetings from WMTEA. We wanted to bring you updates as we get them. The "New Curriculum" WILL be rolled out as of April 2, 2026. What this looks like for instructors: Longer classes, added liability, wear and tear on "Instructor weapons", ammunition cost, range fees, etc.So with all of this in mind and in the vein of being transparent we here at WMTEA unfortunately will have to increase our LTC class prices effective April 2, 2026. We are still working on what that will look like for the students. PLEASE standby for more updates.

Testimonials

This class is a must for any beginner or experienced person interested in learning how to defend their home, family, and themselves. The instructors have a wealth of training and experience from both law enforcement and military training. I felt secure and safe throughout the entire class. Overall great class!

Alan did a great job helping me with the firearm and making sure I was safe with it. I was uncomfortable at first, but Alan and Lee made sure I was doing everything right and then I felt comfortable with the firearm. Lee did a good job at explaining everything.
