I took the online class it was easy but took about all day.

 

Where is a class in the Dayton area

 

Has anyone taken the home study course for hunter education? Looks like a more viable option for those with a busy schedule. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks, E...

Home-Study Course

If you prefer to work at your own pace, Ohio also offers a home-study version of hunter education. We recommend tackling one chapter at a time, and answering all review questions on the provided answer sheet. Each completed answer sheet will be required for a final classroom session prior to finishing the course.

The final completion session usually lasts 3 to 4 hours, and will be led by a Division of Wildlife employee or certified instructor volunteer. It will include firearm safety training and other topics. Each home study chapter review quiz must be presented at the completion session. Completion sessions include the same 100-question final certification test as the instructor-led course. Be sure to bring a pen or pencil so you can take the test.

 

Thank you for the update, my Grandson is ready. He is reading and comprehending good now and it is time.

 

I don't know if they'll be any. I was scheduled to get my instructors certification this year and just got a phone call last week saying that it was cancelled. She said they're redoing the curriculum for the course so all the current instructors need recertification before they start anymore classes. She said to expect the next one around July of 2017.

Since they're changing the curriculum, I don't know if the current instructors will be having any between now and then, or if it would be any good if they did.

 

I am looking for a hunters ed class in NW Ohio, Findlay. Anything planned.

 

awesome,thanks for the help.

 

Yes, OH will honor your Hunters Ed from Michigan.

 

I got hunters ed when i was around 10 living in Michigan now i just moved here 3 years ago and i want to go hunting in Ohio. Will my hunters ed work here?

 

Just got back from my first Ohio Hunter Ed. class.

Now I'm gonna have to end up buying an in-line muzzle loader and hunting bow.

 

I know I talked to you about this before but how do you become a instructor? Can you do that?

 

I have a class at Lake Hodgson in Ravenna on Sept 20, 21, 22 from 6:30-10pm. You must attend all three evenings to receive your certification. There are other classes at the same location and time on October 4, 5, and 6. as well as October 18, 19, and 20.

I am also having a class at my church in Tallmadge, Ohio on two consecutive Saturdays, October 1st and 8th. The class runs from 9am until 4 pm both days. You must attend both days to receive your certification. This class will have videos on survival, Firearms safety, and game care.

Contact 1-800-wildlife to register for any of the classes.

 

I am actually planning my summer and fall classes now. Probably going to do my first class for the year in mid June. Will update the thread as the info is nailed down. You can call 1-800-Wildlife to find out about all available classes in your area. BUT I would be glad to have you attend one of mine!

My next class, my last for this year, wil be held November 12 & 13. It will be held at the Northwest Avenue Church in Tallmadge. The address is 737 Northwest Avenue, Tallmadge, Ohio 44278.

Just finished the October class. passed forty six out of forty six. Some happy hunters headed to walmart this afternoon to buy licenses and tags.

 

Got two classes this week. One is being held at Lake Hodgson in Ravenna. It will be held Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 6:30pm until 10pm each evening. Call Ravenna Parks and Rec to register.

Classes are filling up fast. Last couple have been registered to capacity early. Don't procrastinate. Register early. If you are coming to one of my classes let me know you saw it on OGF.

 

My next class is August 13-14th. Looking forward to another good class. Hunting seasons are just around the corner. Two classes in Sept. Helping with three classes at Lake Hodgeson in Ravenna. Third week of Sept and two classes in October.

 

July 16th and 17th class is fast approaching. I would advise getting into your classes early. Once hunting season starts my classes get booked fast. Had a good turn out for both the April class and the June home study course. Hope to see some OGF members or references.

Be good. Have fun!

I am having a class in June on the 19th that will be a home completion course. This course will be held from 11am until about 5 pm. This course is run differently than a standard course. The student contacts the Dvision of Wildlife at 1-800-wildlife and asks to receive a student manual. The student reads the manual and completes ALL of the review questions at the end of the chapters. Once the questions are completed the student comes to my course on the 19th of june and receives several hours of hands on training and then takes the test.

I will also be runnig a course on Septeber 14, 15, and 16th. It will be a standard course. The times will be from 6pm until 10 pm each day.

All my classes are held at Northwest Avenue Church located at 737 Northwest Ave, Tallmadge, Ohio 44278. Contact 1-800-wildlife or myself at 330-431-1718 to register. Feel free to drop me a PM with any questions.

Thanks
Huntinbull aka John
