I took a Handgun Safety Course from an Instructor that does not appear on the list of recommended Safety Course Instructors, is it still acceptable?


The Orange County Sheriff’s Office
is familiar with and supportive of the training being provided by the
recommended Instructors. 
Training
regimens being utilized by other Instructors may vary widely resulting in
applicants not receiving the same training.
 
Therefore, if you provide a Safety Course Certificate from an Instructor
that does not appear on the recommended list, your application file will be
forwarded to the issuing authority without a recommendation (barring any other
information that would otherwise lead to a recommendation of disapproval).
