conn-e-rot Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 When I took mine the instructor told us if we lost it we'd have to get in touch with him to get another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kawi kid Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 If the trainer kept the certificate in file they can get it for you but if not you might have to take the class over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conn-e-rot Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 In my case the instructor had traveled 2hrs to one of my friend's house where we took the course so it would've been a hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jporter12 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 How long was it from the time of the class to get the CHL? Wasn't there a time limit that they talked about? I haven't seen anything in searching. I'm to the comfort level that I'm ready to get my CHL, I just want to make sure that they'll take what I have from last year.

r1crusher Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 WrongSorry, but you're wrong. I just read up on this over the weekend as I'm due to renew mine in June.Taken directly from the 2011 CCW Laws Manual on the gov. website:In order to renew your license for the first time, you must submit proof of competency certification. Proof of certification may take either of thefollowing forms:1. A previously issued Ohio concealed carry license. The license may be either expired or currently valid.2. A competency certificate from your instructor. There is no longer a time limit from the day you completed your class to the time of your first renewal.I got your back Craig. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1crusher Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Additionally......If you have previously renewed your license and are renewing for a second time, you need to present proof of renewed competency certification. The renewed competency certification must attest that you are range competent. To obtain a renewed competency certification, you do not need to attend the entire course, class, or program that you initially took to obtain your license. The renewed competency certification must be dated and signed by an instructor. It must attest that you are range competent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1crusher Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 I was sweating having to retake the training as well until I read the book again, which for those that don't know is a "requirement" for renewal as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conn-e-rot Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 The sheriff told me at the time that I got mine not to lose the certificate because I could not renew without it.copied from my county sheriffs website... so maybe it varies by county??OHIO CONCEALED CARRY LAW Carrying a concealed handgun is a privilege in Ohio, and with this privilege comes a responsibility to be aware, not only of the common sense rules of safe firearm handling, but the laws that affect how, when and where you can carry your firearm, and how to properly use the handgun to defend yourself or another person. SHERIFF'S OFFICE APPLICATION POLICIES - New & Renewal • Completed application (Applications are available on the Attorney General's Website) • A 2 x 2 Picture • A copy of your certificate for schooling • A $50.00 money order for renewals and a $67.00 money order for new applications. PLEASE HAVE YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE WITH YOU OR WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PROCESS YOUR APPLICATION. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conn-e-rot Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 From scanning ORC 2923.125 it appears the certificate is required for renewal. You need to realize that the attorney general handbook is not law it is a summary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
