Program Overview
The Drone Technician Certificate prepares students to operate, troubleshoot, repair,
and debug Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) commonly referred to as “flying drones.”
The Certificate also prepares students to train personnel to operate drone fleets,
drone delivery systems, and drone light shows. Finally, students who complete this
program will be prepared to take the FAA’s Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Remote
Pilot certification exam (required for all small UAS-Drone commercial and municipal
operations in US airspace).
