This home-study certification program is composed of two components: an online course followed by a mandatory 3-4 hour Field Day session. All participants must successfully complete the online component prior to attending the Field Day course and are required to present a printed and signed certificate of online completion at the time of attendance. The Field Day session is designed to assess each student’s ability to handle firearms safely and responsibly. Upon successful completion of this session, participants will receive a temporary Hunter Safety Education Certificate on the same day. A permanent certification will be emailed to the address provided during registration. Account Registration: All participants must register using their own individual accounts. If registering a minor, please ensure the registration is completed under the child’s personal account, not that of a parent or guardian. Attendance Policy: Full attendance is mandatory.

Departures for any reason—including, but not limited to, medical appointments—will result in disqualification from course completion.
