The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife is offering training academies across the state for those interested in becoming hunter education instructors. The two-day academies certify instructors to teach Ohio’s Hunter Education Courses, which cover a range of topics including conservation, safety, ethics and proper handling of hunting equipment.
Upcoming instructor certification academy for Northwest Ohio, will be Saturday and Sunday, August 9 and 10, at Division of Wildlife District 2 Office, 952 Lima Avenue, Findlay.
There is no cost to participate in the hunter education instructor academy, but all participants are required to complete a background check prior to the start. To register, visit wildohio.gov.
Participants are required to attend both days of training, be at least 18 years of age and have successfully completed the online hunter education course. The online hunter education course can be completed at hunter-ed.com/ohio/.
