An excellent move by a highly respected organisation.
In NZ I've been involved in a major firearms safety and appreciation distance learning course since 1987, whereby students not only have the opportunity to obtain a firearms licence by completing the course they also learn much about shooting sports and about NZ's excellent firearm laws; together with a background to the hunters role in conservation (Ducks Unlimited, etc) and about respect for - wildlife, wildlife habitat, property and property owners.
The course has been ongoing since 1987 and all students completing the course gain 7 units on the NZQA National Framework.
