Ten minutes from the studios, weekend dates built for production schedules.
Burbank students reach our Van Nuys classroom in about ten minutes — close enough that plenty book a course the same week they decide to get licensed. And because so many Burbank residents work production and studio schedules, our seven-day-a-week calendar exists for exactly this crowd: both course days on a weekend, or split across two, or stacked against a hiatus week.
Like its neighbors, Burbank runs its own police department, so your application may go through the city or through the LA County Sheriff depending on current policy and your address. We confirm the correct issuing agency for every Burbank student on day one — it's a two-minute check that saves a two-month mistake.
The state requires 16 hours for a first license, and we teach all of them: safety fundamentals through California use-of-force law, ending in live-fire qualification with each handgun on your application. No compressed days, no slide-reading marathons — the format is described honestly in what to expect at your first class, and the money side in the cost guide.
We serve the whole Burbank–Glendale–Van Nuys triangle, plus Santa Clarita up the 5. One certificate, six counties accepted — the geography only changes your drive.
