General | December 18, 2024

The online platform Recademics.com recently received accreditation by the International Hunter Education Association (IHEA) for its online hunter safety course. As such, it offers a unique approach that goes beyond traditional safety training by equipping students with field-ready skills thanks to an exclusive partnership with OutdoorClass and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.

Topics include firearm safety, wildlife conservation, hunting laws and survival skills. The course is designed to be engaging and interactive, featuring multimedia content, quizzes and practical exercises to reinforce learning. Through a strategic partnership with RMEF’s OutdoorClass, students can also access more than 180 continued education chapters of how-to information led by Randy Newberg, Corey Jacobsen, Remi Warren, John Barklow and other outdoor industry instructors.

“We are honored to have our course recognized by IHEA-USA,” said Mitch Strobl, Recademics.com co-founder. “This accreditation not only affirms the quality of our safety curriculum but also highlights our commitment to helping hunters thrive in the field. By partnering with Outdoorclass.com, we’re creating a seamless bridge between the classroom and real-world success.”

With the convenience of online access, students can complete the Recademics.com course at their own pace. Upon successfully completing the course, Recademics.com connects students with next steps, including in-person classes offered by their respective state wildlife agency, in-person mentoring opportunities and continued education courses with Outdoorclass.com.

“We’re excited about this partnership with Recademics,” said Newberg. “Hunter education is the foundation, teaching safe hunting practices and conservation awareness. This partnership reflects our shared goal of promoting responsible hunting practices and maintaining the tradition of hunting for future generations.”
