Very good training material and professional videos are a superb preparation - thanks to Hunter Ed - before getting a hunting license. It is a lot of material to go thru. I wrote down a lot of things... See more

I liked being able to revisit some information. Getting a correct explanation at the end of tests helped me out a bit with some things that caught me a bit off guard. Definitely helpful in learning. E... See more

It's decent content, but servers need some work. Both me and my brother's took the class over break in (separate states) and we all had issues with loading questions or tests. It wasn't too common, bu... See more

I enjoyed the class. I took an in-person class with my son and daughter 25 years ago and enjoyed that too. However, the on line class fit my timing and didn’t require spending an entire weekend in cla... See more

Great experience

The online class was perfect to complete at my own pace. The email with my certification card came almost immediately.

It's alright but would not do it again.

The material is overall good, but as others have said, the timing of the pages is WAY too long. I realize the need for the timer so people can't just skip along and answer the questions, but my 11 year old can read the pages 3 times out loud before the timer is up, thus him losing interest in sitting there to finish. My only other critique is many of the questions. I've hunted for over 30 years and I don't even know if I would pass this test the first time as, it wants exact verbatim answers while giving 4 possible and viable options to choose from. The test is banking on information recall and not actually learning much like standardized testing in schools. There have been many questions that have stumped my kid and I have gone to read them and all four possible answers would be correct in the real world, but the test is looking for a specific answer from a section that it took over an hour to get thru. If we had more time, we would definitely have done the in person class and skipped out on the online class, so we are having to make due. Will definitely not go this route with my other kids.

This was a very informative

This was a very informative, interesting course. In addition to the very useful gun safety tips regarding hunting, some of the information goes beyond that and touches on responsible firearm handling I learned in my pistol permit class.
All said, a very solid course filled with useful information! Highly recommend!!

Horribly boring and takes forever

Horribly boring, of rather poke my eyeballs out. It's taking me hours to get through. If this course has done anything it's reinforced that I am so not interested in hunting or guns. I didn't know that about myself before this god awful course. The web site claims it takes people about 3-4 hours to complete. That is a lie. It takes at least that to get through section 4 of 11. This is absolutely brutal. I regret it very much.
