Hunting seasons may only last a few months, but the NRA has a new, exciting program that will keep you involved with hunting all year long. Don't let cabin fever slow you down. Become an NRA Hunter Clinic Instructor today!
What is the NRA Hunter Clinic Instructor Program?
 The NRA Hunter Clinic Instructor Program, developed by NRA Hunter Services, is designed to help hunters expand their hunting knowledge and skills, and increase their awareness of safety and responsibility by using the teaching abilities of other hunters (NRA members and non-members alike). For years the NRA used the talents of many well known hunting authorities in the Hunter Clinic and Great American Hunters Tour Programs.
Now you have the opportunity to assist NRA in teaching hunting skills to both beginning and experienced hunters by becoming an NRA Certified Hunter Clinic Instructor. NRA Instructors are supplied with up-to-date, educationally sound training manuals supported by the highly acclaimed NRA Hunter Skills Series books. No matter what, where, or how you hunt, the NRA has an instructor program that will interest you. Topics include:
- Wild Turkey Hunting
- Whitetail Deer Hunting
- Waterfowl Hunting
- Western Big Game Hunting
- Predator and Varmint Hunting
- Small Game Hunting
- Upland Game Bird Hunting
- Handgun Hunting
- Hunter Rifle Marksmanship
- Hunter Shotgun Marksmanship
- Bowhunting
- Muzzleloader Hunting
Note: Since this is a new program, not all certifications are available at this time.
