About the Course and Hunting License Requirements

In most states, hunters can not hunt legally unless they have had some type of hunter education. If you were born on or after January 1, 1967 you must possess proof of successful completion of a hunter education class before applying for a Delaware hunting license.

There are two study options:

Instructor-led classroom courses; or
Independent study through this online course. Upon passing the online Field Day Qualifier Exam, print out your Delaware Field Day Entrance Voucher, which is accepted by the state as proof of home study. The Field Day Entrance Voucher must be presented at your Field Day along with a valid ID.

Register for a Field Day by going online to Delaware's Hunter Education Online Access. Select FIELD DAY TRAINING FOR ONLINE BASIC HUNTER ED COURSE as your course option. If you need help signing up for a Field Day, or if you need more information about the Delaware Hunter Education Program, call 302-735-3600.
