Virginia Hunter Education Outreach & Workshops
Overview
Hunting workshops are sometimes offered to allow students the opportunity to gain hunting skills beyond those taught in the Basic Hunter Education Course.
Details
Most workshops are coordinated by volunteer Hunter Education Course instructors and involve an actual hunting experience.
Classes, such as wild game processing and outdoor skills, may be offered by volunteer Hunter Education Course instructors.
This training does not meet the requirement for certification in Hunter Education.
