The **Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism** requires** all hunters born on or after July 1, 1957**, to successfully complete a State approved Hunter Education course in order to purchase a hunting license or to hunt (except for those hunting on land that they own). This applies to both resident and non-resident hunters.

### Become a safe hunter

The purpose of hunter education is to **develop knowledge, skills, and ****behaviors** necessary to become safe, responsible hunters.

### The online course

Typically, students meet these needs by attending a traditional, instructor led course including classroom lectures and field/range experiences. In today's society, students have less free time to devote to attending a hunter education course. Online hunter education courses help address this, by allowing students to take hunter safety courses on their own time, at their own pace and in the comfort of their home or office.
