I have a (potential) student who was required to take one of these classes, but I cannot find any source info for the required topics or length.

You will not 'rise to the occasion', you will default to your level of training - plan accordingly.
Despite their rallying around us at election time, honoring only 8 hours of Illinois' 40+ hour law enforcement class towards a 16 hour requirement shows the contempt that our elected officials hold us in.

Google says:
a Florida class
another Florida class
a New Hampshire class
a Colorado class
They look like 3 or 4 hour classes.
"This is a gun. Be very careful."
If it's a condition of probation or court supervision, you could ask his parole officer what qualifies for the class.
Looking around on other forums, people there were ordered into the class for getting arrested for DUI or marijuana possession while also in possession of a firearm. Apparently the court just wants to know that the defendant knows which end of a gun the bullets come out, because the judge didn't get the impression the defendant knew when questioned in court.

The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants, and it provides the further advantage of giving the servants of tyranny a good conscience.

Considering who this state elected for governor...
A mandated class to tell which end the bullet leaves may very well be a good idea....

I had a student who needed this from some trouble they got into in Wisconsin. Needed a firearm safety class, no other stipulations. I ran him through my own curriculum, issued a certificate, worked fine for his needs.
