Any IN Instructors Doing IL Courses Yet ?

As far as I've read, Hawaii residents are the only non-Illinois folks that are currently eligible for a non-resident Illinois CCW. Apparently only Hawaii's gun laws are "substantially similar" enough to meet the requirements.

NON-RESIDENTS – What Do I Need Prior to Applying for a Concealed Carry License?

In accordance with 430 ILCS 66/40 (b), out of state residents may be eligible for an Illinois Concealed Carry License if your state meets the definition of substantially similar as established by rule. See 20 Il. Admin. Code 1231.10. Currently, the states identified below have been determined to have laws related to firearm ownership, possession, and carrying that are substantially similar to the requirements to obtain a license under Illinois’ law; and, therefore, may apply for an Concealed Carry License. This list will be updated as additional states are identified as substantially similar. Further Information concerning the regulations for non-resident applications can be found at 20 Il. Admin. Code 1231.110.

So I'm not sure why anyone would offer Illinois-specific CCW training to Indiana residents?
