Our new one-day Crew Resource Management (CRM) facilitation course is led by our qualified instructors who have a wealth of military and civilian experience delivering aviation related courseware. In the constantly evolving field of RPAS, being able to fully harness the capabilities of your organisation, in potentially challenging environments, will ensure that you are actively mitigating a well-documented aviation safety risk, further strengthening your position in the market.
Why do CRM training?
Following the recent release of the UK Specific Operations Risk Assessment framework (or UK SORA) under the CAA, there is now a clear requirement to fully understand and mitigate the risk to air safety caused by a failing in Human Factors (HF) and/or Crew Resource Management (CRM). These are intrinsically linked as a core component of Operational Safety Objectives (OSOs) within SORA and the new Remote Pilot Competence (RPC) framework, enabling Remote Pilots, organisations, and risk owners to actively mitigate this clearly articulated risk in aviation. Our Mastering UK SORA for Drone Operations course will give you a comprehensive understanding of the entire step-by-step process.
As RPAS complexity continues to develop at pace, with multi-crew operations becoming the norm, the need to strengthen this essential safety aspect of RPAS flying has never been more critical.
The new EEI RPAS CRM course will introduce you to this wide-ranging subject area, expanding on the core aspects in a facilitative manner and actively encouraging peer discussion amongst the group. The course covers the following topics:
Why choose Eagle Eye Innovations as your training provider?
Here at Eagle Eye Innovations, we pride ourselves on being the only company specialising in all aspects and classifications of RPAS technology. Our instructors have over 200 years of military experience and amassed thousands of operating hours on a wide variety of systems, in both a commercial and operational setting.
We have expertise on all matters relating to RPAS training, ranging from sub 25kg systems, through to the MQ-9A Reaper and other Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) platforms. We have been operating both nationally and globally since 2013 and are the longest running RPAS training and consultancy organisation in the United Kingdom.
This course will provide you with a solid understanding on the importance of Crew Resource Management and Human Factors in the rapidly evolving world of RPAS operations. We challenge you to apply these lessons into your everyday flying activity and continue striving to be as safe as you can possibly be.
CRM, or Crew Resource Management, is a set of training procedures and strategies focused on communication, decision-making, leadership, and teamwork to optimise human performance and reduce error in high-risk environments like aviation and RPAS operations.
Even in remotely piloted environments, human factors remain a critical risk. CRM helps RPAS operators, pilots, and supporting crew work more effectively as a team, enhancing situational awareness, reducing errors, and ultimately improving safety and mission success.
CRM supports several aspects of the Specific Operations Risk Assessment (SORA) process by strengthening operational safety through effective risk identification, mitigation, and human performance management.
No, this is a facilitated in-person course, where your engagement is critical to maximising the benefit, ensuring we all learn from each other.
Excellent course with excellent instruction. Gally was very personable and pitched the course at the right level. The theory element was quite technical but was made easier by the instruction. none of the course material was laboured, but there was enough explanation to check understanding. The practical element was made easy because of the quality of training. all together, an excellent course. would definitely use EE Innovations again and would have no hesitation in recommending you as a training provider.

The whole team was an absolute pleasure to work with, friendly and approachable with a good sense of humour. University of the West
Really good day with Matt and Ian. I think we all cam e away feeling far more confident with the M30T and night flying in particular. Environment Agency
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).
