The new training
option includes a virtual field day that emphasizes responsible gun handling
and hunting safety. Students who complete the course are issued a voucher that
they can use to complete their certification immediately or attend an
instructor led field day.
“This will greatly
increase certification accessibility to working adults and military personnel
who traditionally have conflicts trying to scheduling a multi-week classroom
course,” said Capt. Mike Hammer, DNR Enforcement education program coordinator.
“This is a great
addition to our computer based adult safety training programs,” Hammer said.
“We think it will be a huge success and create even more safe hunters.”
