Since its founding in 2005, the Hunting School Thuringia GmbH in Erfurt has established itself as a renowned center for hunting education. With its comprehensive course offerings and over 25 years of expertise, led by Mr. Olaf Ehrich, JST GmbH stands for quality and professionalism in hunter and falconer training.
Each year, about 150 hunting students go through the diverse course offerings of the school, which range from Saturday courses to compact courses and modular teaching programs. This flexibility allows students to tailor their education to their individual needs.
A special feature of JST GmbH is its cooperation with the University of Applied Sciences Erfurt, particularly with the Department of Forestry and Wildlife Management. As an external service provider, the school offers students specialized training to obtain their hunting license. Additionally, a falconry course is conducted annually in collaboration with the German Falconry Association, State Association Thuringia.
Mr. Ehrich, the owner of the hunting school, brings his extensive experience and expertise into the training. He is one of only twelve IHK-certified instructors for hunting training in all of Germany, which underscores the high quality and standards of the education.
The Hunting School Thuringia is distinguished not only by its experienced instructors but also by its modern teaching materials. It uses the latest teaching materials, video recordings, live streams, and an e-learning portal to make the lessons interactive and effective.
Another advantage of JST GmbH is its own shooting range, which has been in operation for four years. This allows for intensive and focused training in shooting, independent of external influences.
Practical skills in handling game are taught in a game cooling and processing room designed according to the latest food hygiene regulations. Here, students learn to process the hunted game properly and prepare it for the kitchen.
Graduates of JST GmbH also benefit from the school's weapons trading license, which allows them to purchase weapons, optics, and ammunition at preferential prices.
Overall, the Hunting School Thuringia GmbH offers a comprehensive, professional, and modern education that prepares its graduates well for their future roles in the world of hunting and falconry.
