If the permittee applies to renew the permit more than 60 days after the permit expires, but no more than 180 days after the permit expires, the sheriff shall waive the requirement of taking another firearms and safety training course if the permittee (i) completes a refresher course on the laws governing the use or carry of firearms in this State that is certified or sponsored by at least one of the entities listed in G.S. 14‑415.12(a)(4) and (ii) submits documentation to the sheriff confirming the permittee completed the refresher course.
