Rend Lake College

The hunter safety course is taught entirely in-person. Students will receive a lifetime hunter safety education student card upon successful course completion. Anyone born on or after January 1, 1980, is required to complete a hunter safety education course before purchasing an Illinois hunting license. Course includes hunter responsibility and ethics, safe firearm handling, firearm and ammunition identification, zones of fire, tree stand safety, rules and regulations, and more. Students must pass a 50-question multiple choice test with a score of 80% or better and display the necessary maturity to hunt independently to receive an Illinois hunter safety education student card. Students under the age of 10 must be accompanied to and during the course by an adult or guardian that is at least 16 years old. Pre-registration is required due to limited space. Students must also register at www.dnr.illinois.gov/safety/huntersafety.html
