read the alberta trapping regs a couple of time so you are familiar with alberta laws
ie) the seasons, the areas, the forms you need for private land trapping, what are legal traps and sets, what you can trap if you are a resident trapper compared to a RFMA trapper etc
go down to the edmonton fish and wild life on 50st (they are closed from noon to 1 for lunch everyday)
take your previous province license and other documentation
get your resident trapping license (i think it costs 21 bucks)
this allow you to trap private land with permission from the land owner
if you want to own a RFMA, first you will need to find someone to sell you one, (typically range from tens of thousands into hundreds of thousands)
before f&w will transfer it to you:
a) you need to prove you are actively trapping for the last 3 years
b) you need to be a junior on the RFMA you want to take over
c) you need to have the alberta trapping course in the last 5 years (regardless if you have taken in previously)
