The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission offers an alternative
delivery program that allows students to obtain partial credit for the hunter
safety course by completing an interactive Internet or CD-ROM program. To
obtain a hunter safety course certificate, students must complete the
interactive Internet or CD-ROM program and attend a scheduled “hands-on” field
day.
The interactive Internet and CD-ROM course was developed in cooperation with seven southeastern states as a means of increasing accessibility to hunter safety programs. The field days are offered throughout the State of Florida. Please refer to our “Course
Schedules” link for information regarding the availability of the field days
in your area. This alternative delivery format is in addition to the traditional
courses scheduled in all of Florida’s counties.
The interactive Internet and CD-ROM course
has many activities and questions, including a 50-question sample test that students
must complete. After completing the online internet course, students must print
the final report form with sample test results and have it notarized. At that time,
they will enroll in one of the scheduled field days posted online through the “Course
Schedules” link. At the field day, students must complete a standard
written examination and are expected to demonstrate many skills such as loading
and unloading different types of firearms, safely crossing fences, and other
activities that all safe responsible hunters should be able to complete.
Students wishing to complete the alternative
delivery course using the CD-ROM method will need to contact the closest
FWC Hunter Safety office a minimum of two
weeks prior to the scheduled course
field
day. A CD-ROM with instructions will be
mailed at the student's request.
