Hunter education training is required in Washington
State for all hunters born after January 1, 1972. The
Department of Fish and Wildlife offers four distinct
types of hunter education training opportunities, including:
Traditional Class
WDFW strongly recommends the traditional hunter education
class. One or more instructors typically offer detailed
classroom instruction, practical exercises and live-firing
activities to prepare successful students.
Paradigm Shift (1)
A compressed class which places the entire
burden for learning on the student, this hunter education
activity is only recommended for adult students.
Student Jamborees (2)
An intensive, three-day class (Fri-Sun), the Student
Jamboree keeps both students and instructors busy
in a camp-like atmosphere.
Home Study
No instructional support is offered for students enrolled
in this module, and this hunter education activity,
which is only recommended for mature students.
The majority of hunter education activities listed
below are traditional classes.
