CORE Examiners operate on their own schedules and are appointed by the Hunter Safety Training Regulations. The CORE Examiners provide the written exam and practical firearm-handling exam. Potential CORE students should contact the CORE Examiners on this list to obtain a mutually agreeable arrangement for testing or to inquire about the availability of optional instruction in CORE subject material. Please contact the examiner prior to 9:00 PM. FEES There is a $10.00 fee payable to the examiner for each of the two required tests (written and practical) or Examination retakes. On successful completion of the two tests, an administration fee of $30.00 must be provided to the BCWF. The CORE student will forward this fee to the BCWF. A graduation certificate will be mailed to the student. If the administrative fee is paid by cheque please make it payable to the BC Wildlife Federation. The instructor sets fees for the instruction of CORE. Students should ask what the instruction fees cover. BROCHURE A brochure is available outlining the CORE Program.
