Drones — Remote Pilot FAA Test Prep
Now available for commercial use, Drones, aka Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS), have applications across many industries and are quickly becoming indispensable tools to many industries, including agriculture, architecture, construction, law enforcement, the media, photography, real estate, search and rescue, and many more!
To legally operate a drone for any business purpose, FAA regulations now require remote pilot certification.

Participants will receive a training certificate of completion. Classes are offered in partnership with SkyOp LLC.
