What a fantastic way to think...
Left wing, right wing, they belong to the same bird.
If this is a requirement of your club, you should confirm that the club will recognize any outside training that you may hire.
If thats all its for, then you should know there are no nationally recognized holster training courses. It doesn't exist.
Don't let the BB enthusiasts fool you. BB is not a holster course. Its a how to compete in IPSC course. IPSC requires the use of a holster and so yes this course covers holster use, but it in respect of IPSC. Likewise, IDPA also has its on intro course, again, it is intro to IDPA.
Holsters aren't that complicated. I taught my 6 year old how to use a holster in 3 minutes. Watch any tex Grubner video, and do the opposite of what he says, and you should be good to go.
Not to be little your interests, but did you need a sling course to use a sling with your rifle? Holsters are pretty basic.
That said, training is always a good thing, and I readily encourage to seek out anyone that is proficient and obtain instruction. Trouble is, there is no official way to vet if people are good or not. You basically have to check their resume, if available, and watch them teach/shoot, and judge for yourself if they are good to go.
Gun laws in Canada, and particularly the CFOs who oversee the ranges, significantly stifle this type of training.
Yes you can. It is lawful to possess/carry ANY firearm loaded ANYWHERE that it is lawful to discharge it. If it is lawful to discharge a firearm on your property, then it is lawful to carry a loaded firearm in a holster on your property.
The problem regarding restricted firearms is WHERE you can lawfully possess them at all, but that is a separate issue. Further, there is a grocery list of firearms, such as pellet guns, and antiques, that are not subject to requirements for Authorizations to Transport under S 93 and S 95 of the criminal code, either of which can be possessed loaded in a holster just about anywhere.

I'm not sure how widespread the practice is, but at some ranges in Ontario, you can't even have an uncased restricted firearm off the firing line. You have to bring your case to the line, take your gun out for use and then do the reverse when you are finished. So in effect, the gun is not to be seen unless it is at the firing line.
Look to your front! Mark your target when it comes.

My club has multiple bays. You can transport an unloaded firearm in a holster from bay to bay on foot, but not by car. We have enough sensible people at our club to know that a holstered firearm is a safe firearm. I believe this rule was implemented after negotiation with the CFO. We run a lot of action matches, from IPSC, to IDPA, to Cowboy, etc.

Common sense and practicality, even when combined with the requisite dosage of safety, are often lacking in Canadian firearms laws and associated regulations, and unfortunately we as a community are sometimes guilty of piling on; albeit usually out of fear of the CFO.

Not sure if you from Ontario but I did my BB last summer and a weekend of shooting is worth doing to safely use a holster at your range. As stated earlier, it is definitely foreplay to get into ipsc as much as it is for safe holster use, but in most cases it's the first safety course you take with your rpal. Did it with about 12 others, half from other clubs. It was refreshing to spend a weekend with likeminded people who are all rocking different setups, that as long as you're not an #######, you get a chance to shoot guns you only dream of. I walked in with a stock 9mm glock and got to shoot an sti, sig,walther, 1911, orange and blue cz, let alone a 40 and 45 cal.

Another excellent firearms instructor to consider is Dave Young, of C.A.P.S.. <https://www.caps-training.com/>
He wrote the book on defensive firearm ownership and use in Canada, Reasonable and Necessary.
Currrently, Reasonable and Necessary is out-of-print, but it's also highly recommended (if you can find a copy).
"Your gun. Your ammo. No excuses."

I used to take these courses and I liked them so much that I decided to write my research paper based on these courses, because I was sure that it would be useful for many people. To make this process easier for me, I decided to use the services of WritersPerHour, but when I read their review at https://essayservicescanner.com/writersperhour-review/ I realized that their writers are quite irresponsible, and I was not happy at all, so I decided to rely on my own strength and I succeeded. That's cool

I am very certain that an IPSC BB is only needed by a Canadian to shoot a santioned IPSC match in Canada.
Some clubs or matches may decide on their own to accept the BB as a holster qualification for some match they run.
You will find differences whereever you go.
