FALCONRY TRAINING
The Northern Wings educational center and its authorized trainers offer training in falconry allowing, subject to the success of the course, the obtaining of a falconry license from the Ministry of Forests, Wildlife and Parks of Quebec.
The courses are offered to those who demonstrate a deep interest in falconry, which is 100% committed to art and their main partner: their bird.
An extremely limited number (five (5) to ten (10) students per cohort) of people can register for the training which is held once a year.
The training lasts twelve (12) months; in accordance with the new regulations in force in Quebec on September 8, 2018 which must be respected by all falconry centers as well as the falconers themselves, a year of training must be planned for students in order to obtain their Class permit 1 of falconry. The latter allows the individual to take advantage of a bird of prey while respecting different criteria (bird species, habitat, etc.).
In the following program, you will learn:

- The introduction to falconry.
- Birds used in falconry.
- Presentation of relevant literature and readings.
- The essential equipment of the falconer.
- The arrangement of aviaries.
- The anatomy of birds of prey.
- The care of the bird.
- Quebec regulations and laws according to the Ministry of Forests, Wildlife and Parks.
- The diet of the bird of prey.
- Caring for your bird.
- Prevention of trauma and potential dangers.
- Appropriate handling of the bird.
- Training in assisted flight (with claim) and free flight (without ties).
- Birds of prey native to Quebec and Canada.
At the end of the training, you will get a certificate from the falconer who taught you, allowing you to validate your license with the Ministry of Forests, Wildlife and Parks of Quebec.
