Anyone can become an NRA instructor.
Yes, and I do know some instructors will pass anyone to become an instructor.
But, for many people, the NRA course is good. It teaches some adult learning, how to instruct, and it gives a virtual step by step of what to instruct.
Now, an instructor out on a range trying to teach tactical techniques, or bullseye, or IDPA, or USPSA, THEY need to be well qualified in shooting.
But basic NRA classes? If you can learn the material and have some basic skills (know how to load, unload, pull the trigger), you will probably be OK. It is not rocket science.
