PHOENIX, AZ -- If you have experience in hunting and are interested in passing your love of the outdoors on to a new generation of sportsmen and women, consider becoming a Volunteer Hunter Education Instructor. Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFS) is looking for knowledgeable individuals to teach hunter education courses. Sign up now for a FREE training program for future volunteer hunter education instructors.
The two-day Volunteer Hunter Education Instructor program will be held from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. on Saturday, June 23 and Sunday, June 24 at the department's Pinetop Regional Office, 2878 E. White Mountain Blvd. Volunteer instructors must be at least 18 years old.
If selected to participate in the Volunteer Hunter Education Instructor program, you'll learn how to teach a standardized curriculum and share your knowledge of hunting and the outdoors.
