This bill mandates that applicants for a fish and game guide license must pass a standardized examination administered by a qualified fish and game officer. The new legal language specifies that the officer must also be a licensed guide in New Hampshire and have completed a wilderness first responder certification course. Additionally, the bill introduces a requirement that all examination questions and answers be presented in a standardized test format, with study materials provided to applicants upon submission of their application.

The bill also makes several amendments to existing law, including changing the language to be gender-neutral by replacing "He" with "They." It emphasizes that applicants must be at least 18 years old and possess the necessary skills for guiding in fishing and hunting activities. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
