The Mastering UK SORA for Drone Operations course is our new course, offering a comprehensive overview of the UK SORA methodology, the first of its kind in the UK. The course is designed for a wide array of UK and International organisations seeking to operate Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) in complex operations in the Specific Category in use cases such as Beyond Visual Line Of Sight (BVLOS) operations, dropping of articles, operations in congested areas, RPAS with a maximum Take Off Mass (MTOM) of greater than 25 Kgs and swarming operations.

Delivered by a market leading Safety Practitioner SME, the course is 3 days duration and delivers a step-by-step workflow through the 14 step SORA submission process with advice on the intricacies of interpreting the SORA policy to ensure a successful application. Theoretical, classroom-based training delivery forms the core of the course beginning with insights into tailoring applicants Concept of Operations (ConOps) to optimise successful entry into the SORA pathway. Follow-on steps will be covered such as calculating the Ground Risk Class (GRC), Air Risk Class (ARC), determining the SAIL category and examining compliance against the Operational Safety Objectives (OSO’s). Importantly, students will conduct practical confirmation through case studies which enable students to put theoretical learning into practice with worked examples.

Candidates will be expected to complete a focused amount of pre-course reading and will receive a comprehensive Student handbook and post course support advice.

Course completion will place the students in a strong informed position to understand and successfully complete an application in what is a step change in risk methodology in the UK and Internationally. A key stepping stone towards more complex operations and unlocking the full potential of RPAS.

We also offer a SORA Support Service by partnering with clients and providing them with SORA SMEs to advise and assist with the complete UK SORA application process.
