The Concealed Carry Class for Kissimmee and Osceola County
Kissimmee has grown into one of Central Florida's most active residential corridors, and with that growth has come a consistent demand for professional concealed carry training taught by people who understand the responsibility of what they teach. USS Academy has been the concealed carry class of record for Kissimmee, St. Cloud, Poinciana, and the surrounding Osceola County communities since 1997 — 29,000+ students trained across 27 years.
Every USS Academy concealed carry class is taught in person by a certified Law Enforcement Firearms Instructor. Every class includes live-fire qualification on a licensed partner range that sits inside Osceola County at 595 Donovan Crews Road, Saint Cloud — a short 15 to 20 minute drive from most Kissimmee addresses. Every student leaves with a state-approved Certificate of Completion the same day, accepted by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services across all 67 counties.

A Short Drive to Your Class
USS Academy's primary partner range is located at 595 Donovan Crews Road, Saint Cloud, FL 34773. From Kissimmee, the drive is typically 15 to 20 minutes via Neptune Road, US-192, or the Florida Turnpike depending on traffic and your starting address. Students from Poinciana, Buenaventura Lakes, Celebration, and Four Corners take similar routes.
For Kissimmee area groups of 10 or more students, USS Academy can host private classes at Kissimmee venues including hotel conference rooms, HOA clubhouses, and community centers. See our Host a Class program for hosted session inquiries.
Built for Every Student
The concealed carry class is built for every learner. First-time shooters enroll regularly and are taught patiently from grip and stance. Experienced gun owners enroll because they need the formal state-required certificate for their Florida CWL application. Military veterans and law enforcement officers enroll to meet Florida's specific certification requirement. Women make up a significant portion of our students, and we run select sessions under female-led instruction.
Families enroll together, couples enroll together, and friend groups and workplace colleagues regularly share a class. Group pricing applies at 6 or more students, and private group sessions can be scheduled for booking inquiries of 10 or more.
