Have to keep the younger kids engaged and they're doing everything on the internet now. Would rather see no course (just as we don't have safety training for the GWCL) but it's a step in the right direction.
Ultimately we should be entrusting the teaching of proper hunting practices into the hands of families, not the government. And those who don't have a history of hunting in the family can still attend these course and learn the basics regardless of their life schedule or their location in the State. And for the guy who wanted to be an instructor, this possibly gives you an avenue of opportunity. Host the class, teach your heart out, and have your students take a recognized online test for course completion. In fact, if I were going to take an in-person class, I would much prefer that option than what is currently available. It's no different than SAT prep: many people opt for tutors and paid teaching services prior to taking the actual test.
Win/win for everyone as far as I see it.
