To become a licensed hunter in New Hampshire, you must complete a Hunter Education course. Hunter Education is required for new hunters to purchase their first hunting or archery license. Classes are open to participants age 12 and older.

Hunter Education covers safe firearms handling, archery equipment, wildlife management principles, map and compass skills, New Hampshire game laws, and more. NH Fish and Game offers two types of Hunter Education courses:

This is a Traditional Hunter Education

Traditional courses take place in-person and include:

1. Classroom lessons with certified volunteer instructors
2. Multiple-choice written exam (80% or better to pass)
3. Field day assessment and practical exam

On field day, students will demonstrate their knowledge of safe hunting and firearms handling. Participants must pass both the written exam and the practical field exam to receive a certification.

If you successfully complete the course, the Hunter Education certification will be emailed to you once the instructor inputs your course results. Students can return to the registration site to see a history of their courses or print a copy of their certification.

Participants are reminded not to bring personal firearms to Hunter Education classes.
