Hunter safety education card

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources requires you to show proof of previously having a hunting license prior to July 1, 1977 or proof of having successfully completed a State approved Hunter Education Course.

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.
