Basic Hunter Education Course - Blended Learning Format
In this learning format, students study the course material ahead of time to prepare them for in-class activities with the instructor and peers. Students first complete the Massachusetts Hunter study guide on their own (50% of the course) before attending the Field Day for hands-on practice (50% of the course) and to take the final exam. If you have any questions, please call the Hunter Education program at (508) 389-7820.
