As this is written, the Illinois State Police (ISP) is in the process of vetting/approving CCL instructors. As new instructors are approved, they are posted on the ISP website. Approved CCL instructors will begin training classes once the ISP has approved the curriculum. Each instructor will have substantial discretion in teaching that curriculum. The ISP will begin accepting applications for CCL on January 5, 2014 and will have 90 days to take action on those applications. Thus, those applicants who complete their applications as soon as possible will have their decision (and hopefully their CCL) on or before early April, 2014. For further detailed information please visit the ISP website.
