Notice that the is a box just above the monthly calendar that allows you to select a distance that you are willing to drive to take the course. The default is set at 25 miles, but if there are no courses offered within your desired timeframe, you can always increase the distance you are willing to drive to see if there are any others being offered at greater distances.

You will also be asked to create your own unique Username and Password. You cannot register without doing this. Your Username and Password will also allow you to register for future hunter education courses offered by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.
7. Once you have completed the form, then select the button labelled "Next" at the bottom of the page.

Scroll down and you will see message in red text by the missing or incorrect data. Re-enter correctly, then scroll down and click on "Next".
