The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources announced it has received digital excellence awards for its Go Wild license and registration online portal. The Go Wild system has earned a 2021 w3 and dotCOMM Gold Award for outstanding websites and digital content.
Earlier this year, the site also earned a 2021 Communicator Award of Distinction and a 2021 Gold Hermes Creative Award in recognition of the system's ease of use.
"This recognition is a testament to the hard work and collaboration that has gone into making the Go Wild online system a one-stop shop for Wisconsin outdoor recreation licenses, management and education," said State DNR Assistant Deputy Secretary Steven Little. "We're committed to providing a quality online platform for outdoor enthusiasts so they can spend more time enjoying our state's natural resources."
The DNR launched Go Wild in 2016 in partnership with NIC Wisconsin, a subsidiary of Tyler Technologies, to provide Wisconsin's outdoor enthusiasts an easy-to-use online option to obtain fishing and hunting licenses, register for safety education courses and manage their boats, ATVs and other off-road vehicles through an efficient online experience. In 2021, Go Wild has processed more than 1.4 million transactions online.
