Recademics Launches Delaware Hunter Education Course, Officially Approved by DNREC’s Division of Fish & Wildlife

In 2025, Delaware hunters have a new way to get hunter education certified—modern, mobile, and rated 4.9/5 by hunters nationwide

Southlake, Texas  — New to Delaware hunters, Recademics recently announced the launch of its online Delaware Hunter Education Course, officially approved by the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC), Division of Fish & Wildlife. Designed for new and seasoned hunters alike, the online course provides a convenient, engaging path for Delaware hunters to meet the state’s hunter education requirement, on any device, at their own pace.

“As hunters and conservationists ourselves, we’re grateful to have received accreditation by the DNREC. They’ve entrusted us to help educate the next generation of Delaware hunters and conservationists, and we commit to doing just that,” said Mitch Strobl, Co-Founder of Recademics. “Our course covers everything that Delaware hunters will need to know to stay safe out there. We go well beyond the standards, preparing students for their field day and their first hunt.”

With over 4 hours of live-action video content, the course covers everything required by the DNREC and IHEA-USA, including: 

  • Stewardship & Field Ethics — Leave No Trace principles, fair chase, reporting violations, and mentoring new hunters to keep the tradition strong.
  • Conservation as a Wildlife Management Tool — How seasons, bag limits, habitat work, and hunter participation sustain healthy wildlife populations under the North American Model.
  • Firearm Safety & Handling — Safe carry positions, muzzle control, loading/unloading, transport and storage, safe zones of fire, and range etiquette.
  • Treestand Safety — Harness selection and fit, lifelines, three points of contact, proper stand setup, and fall-arrest best practices.
  • Ethics & Shot Selection — Effective range, shot angles, knowing when to pass, and making respectful, high-percentage shots to minimize wounding.
  • Game Recovery & Field Care — Blood-trailing, tracking decisions, tagging, field dressing, cooling meat, and preventing spoilage.
  • Wildlife Identification — Key field marks, sex/age identification, and distinguishing similar or protected species to stay legal and ethical.
  • Hunting Laws & Responsibilities — Licenses, permits, tagging/checking, access rules, and how to interpret regulation changes each season.
  • Outdoor Preparedness & First Aid — Trip planning, weather awareness, hypothermia prevention, basic first aid, and emergency communication.

     

“We invested heavily in live-action video because it looks, sounds, and feels like the field,” said Jake Waldrop, Co-Founder of Recademics. “It’s the closest thing to standing next to a mentor, paired with the flexibility of high-quality online learning. The goal is simple: help Delaware hunters become safe, ethical, and confident in the field.”
