Protecting our hunting heritage through safe, knowledgeable and responsible hunters.

The Hybrid Course format is designed to create flexibility with learning styles and flexibility with a shorter field day. The program is designed to cover the information you need to know before going hunting – the same information delivered in the traditional classroom format. Like the traditional course, there is no required fee to take the online course. This class is open to all students 11 years of age and older.

Please complete the online course prior to registration for field day. Proof of online course completion is required by either a screenshot or printout of the field day qualifier certificate.

This hybrid method is a three-part process that requires completion of the Kansas online hunter education course, pre-registration in a hybrid field day, AND successful completion of a hybrid field day.
