Az ccw

[F41c0n]

Hey everyone so i just applied for my AZ ccw nonresident and used my certificate from an oklahoma chl class for proof of training. When i asked the lady az ccw permit dpt she said she was unsure that the certificate (because the certificate says SDA instructor instead or NRA) would fulfill the requirement, but i should send it in anyway. So in an effort to save some time, my question to you guys is has anyone used their class certificate and gotten approved? or isit likely that i will get rejected and I should find an NRA class to take quickly?

SDA cert should be fine....someone correct me?

I think AZ requires you to take the training in AZ, so out of state training may not be recognized, keep us posted on how the lady replies.
