Depends on what, why, and how he is trapping.

Once you start trapping you'll be hooked. Just go get your lisence and trap where ever you want. It's super easy to get.  You won't regret it.

Or you can order the book for $15, study it when you have time, then make an appointment with a tester when your ready.

First the OPs question. I am not 100% sure. I think so but it is illegal to accept pay for trapping unless you are a WCO. I would not be comfortable advising either way. Probably best to call WDFW. Contact this guy Robert Waddell Robert.Wadell@dfw.wa.gov or (360)902-2402

To the ease of getting a trapping license. The class coming up is on Dec. 3rd at Lacy. The class is free but we do charge $15 for a copy of the Manual if you care to take it home.
That will likely change next year when the new revised manual go online. Half price WSTA membership if you take the class.

If you take the class it is pretty hard to fail. The how to find a class is stickied to the top. We try to do our best to provide classes. If you call George he should be able to get you lined up.
