California Hunter Education Program

Home Study / On-line Classes

On-line courses are available at Kalkomey Interprises and International Hunter Education Association. The on-line course will not get you a valid hunter education certificate. Once you have completed one of the above on-line courses, you will still need to attend a 4 hour home study/on-line class with a certified hunter education instructor. Acess is permitted to the Home Study and On-line 4 hour classes only after a student has completed the written Home Study or On-line component of the class. Contact the local District Coordinator for more information on the Home Study or On-line class.
