hunter education records were computerized beginning in 1982. It is
not possible to verify course completion prior to that date. To replace
a Missouri hunter education certificate, call the Missouri Department
of Conservation headquarters at 573-751-4115. Regional offices are also able to issue replacement cards if you know in which region you took your course. The Regional Offices are: St. Louis: 636-441-4554 Kansas City: 816-655-6250 Northwest: 816-271-3100 Northeast: 660-785-2553 Central: 573-884-6861 West Central: 660-885-6981 East Central: 573-468-3335 Southwest: 417-895-6880 Ozark: 417-256-0429 Southeast: 573-290-5730 In 1995, hunter education certification was issued on a Conservation Heritage Card.
