We are accredited as a Recognised Assessment Entity (RAE) and an RAE(PC) by the CAA, which allows us to deliver training for the A2 Certificate of Competency (A2 CofC), the General Visual Line of Sight Certificate (GVC), and now the Remote Pilot Certificate – Level 1 (RPC-L1). Our Academy prides itself on the high-quality drone training we offer to customers of all backgrounds, industries and levels of drone piloting experience.
Our Academy instructors are ex-military professionals with extensive backgrounds in drone operations from all over the world, uniquely placing us to offer tactics and training relevant to your requirements.
All of our drone training courses are completely customisable based on your requirements, meaning you can choose one of our other courses to enhance your certifications and broaden your range of opportunities.

The RPC-L1 course sets the new standard for professional drone pilots. CAA-accredited, industry-aligned, and the first of it’s kind, this course provides the essential foundation for safe and compliant operations.

If you hold a valid GVC, you can convert to an RPC-L1 qualification in the same RPAS category by completing the practical elements only. Receive a minimum of two hours’ flight instruction before your assessment. Proof of GVC validity will be required prior to conducting the training.

Our most popular course, the GVC, combines both the A2 CofC and GVC qualifications, taking beginners to confident, safe drone operators in just four days. You’ll gain the knowledge and skills needed to operate professionally across any project, hobby, or industry.

Ideal for businesses and teams, our GVC Closed course helps organisations broaden their skillsets. Our expert instructors have trained professionals across Film and TV, Agronomy, Geo-Science, and emergency services.

Our GVC Fast Track Course is the ideal way to earn your GVC and A2 CofC in just 2.5-days if you already have drone piloting experience, giving you the knowledge you need to operate drones safely in a wide range of industries and sectors.

Delivered online or in person, our 1-day A2 CofC course prepares you for A2 category operations and teaches essential mitigations for safe flying in congested areas.

This course builds on your RPC-L1 Aeroplane qualification to convert you to the DeltaQuad Evo RPAS. Learn to operate VLOS missions and use the Auterion Mission Planner, with potential for BVLOS expansion.

Following your RPC-L1 Rotorcraft qualification, add a conversion-to-type on the SwellPro Splash Drone 4 or DJI M30T. Gain practical skills to operate these advanced systems and enhance your operational capabilities.

With experience training fire services, mountain rescue, and Police Forces, our expert instructors deliver bespoke GVC and A2 CofC courses that prepare emergency personnel for real-world, high-pressure missions.

Earn your NVQ Level 4 Certificate in Drone Operations with EEI. Ideal for aspiring professionals or entrepreneurs starting a drone business. This course is also eligible for ELCAS funding (provider name: Eagle Eye Innovations).

Coming soon…
You need to have an RPC-L1 Aeroplane qualification to begin this course, as this will build upon the fundamentals of fixed wing flying to convert you to type on our impressive DeltaQuad Evo RPAS. What’s more, you will also learn how to use the exceptional Auterion Mission Planner, which is the brains of the operation when using DeltaQuad. This is a VLOS course only, although we have the ability to further expand on this into the BVLOS environment, provided the correct regulatory approvals are established. Experience this cutting-edge VTOL RPAS now and let us show you how it can further benefit your operations.
Our new 1-day Observers course is designed to expand your RPAS crewing capabilities and de-risk more complex operations through the provision of professionally qualified RPAS safety observers. Utilising proven aviation standards and procedures, our professional and
experienced instructors will guide you through the fundamentals of Crew Resource Management, crew communications, RPAS control and coordination and give you the practical experience you need to maximise the benefits of your RPAS for VLOS operations and beyond.
If you hold a valid GVC and want to convert to an RPC-L1 qualification in the same category of UAS, under the CAA you are exempt from conducting the theory elements of the course and may progress directly to the practical elements. Therefore, you simply need to book
onto either our conversion course or the practical days of a full RPC-L1 course (provided there is capacity to fit you in). This will provide you with the minimum of 2-hours flight instruction before you attempt the flight assessment. Proof of GVC validity will be required prior to conducting the training.
This course is designed to qualify you in either Rotorcraft or Aeroplane, noting that you only need to conduct the practical aspects of the course, provided you have successfully passed the full Level 1 course in the other discipline.
(Please note this does not include conversion onto our DeltaQuad platform; that is a bespoke course in its own right).
