HUNTING EDUCATION CERTIFICATE Many states and provinces require that beginning hunters take classes either online or in a classroom to learn hunting safety and also to earn their Hunting Education Certificate. This certificate is a requirement for getting a hunting license. However, if beginning hunters are not old enough to get a hunting license, they are still required by many state laws to complete the training for the Hunting Education Certificate. You can study the course online. However, the final test is taken in a classroom. Taking these classes offers a lot of educational value to the beginning hunter and helps teach some valuable hunting skills. Read more on this subject in the next chapter.

In some places, a hunting safety class is required before purchasing a license.

Since implementing the requirement of the Hunting Education Certificate with beginning hunters, the rate of hunting accidents and deaths has declined dramatically. By educating beginning hunters on the importance of gun safety and how to hunt safely and correctly, hunting has become a much safer sport that more people can enjoy.
