“It’s our hope that this initiative will help increase accessibility to hunter education classes statewide,” said Andrew Choy, Hunter Education Program manager. “Access to classes and clear information on hunting in Hawai‘i goes hand-in-hand with promoting hunting statewide and increasing access and opportunities for new and seasoned hunters.”

“I’d like to reinforce that hunter education is not just for hunters or about hunting—our course starts on the foundation of responsible wildlife management, conservation and hunters’ ethics; we build on this foundation to cover a wide range of subjects including: firearms and archery safety, rules and regulations, first aid and survival, and game care,” Choy said. “By creating an accessible internet portal, we place control in people’s hands to explore hunter education and hunting opportunities in Hawai‘i on their own terms.”
