When you take your Hunter's Safety Course information to the MNR they'll give you your temp license (before they send you your card in a few months). You can buy tags for that license at that time or get them later.
As was stated before, your Turkey license is the only one that requires an extra course. If you get your Turkey license, you will get a gold 'T' on your outdoors card when it comes, or on your next issued outdoors card.
Take the Turkey Course...bring coffee...or a pillow...your choice...you're going to need either one.
