Choosing the Right Drone Course Provider for Your Business
Australia was one of the first nations to create regulations regarding RPA or remotely piloted aircraft. As drone technology has continued to grow and thrive, our country has remained at the forefront of drone-related legalities. For Australian business owners and individuals looking to use drones, it’s important to be certain to comply with any existing regulations. In many cases, you may need to acquire the proper drone certification. Who needs to take a drone course? Which UAV coursework will be required? And, perhaps most importantly, how can you decide which course operator to choose? The following factors may assist in your considerations.
A CASA-Approved Drone Training Organisation
In Australia, the governing body which oversees drone regulations is the CASA, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. Those who need a RPA operators certificate or other relevant coursework, will only want to choose drone courses that are approved by CASA. (Total RPA holds the UAS Operator Certificate necessary to meet the requirement). Choosing a certified training provider not only ensures that your coursework will prepare you to fully meet legal directives, but helps guarantee that you’re selecting a reputable organisation.
All the UAV Courses You Need
In Australia, the proper certification and training are necessary to pilot a drone, UAV, or RPA for commercial purposes. Depending on your objectives, you may need multiple options in UAV coursework. To make your life easier, why not select a training provider who offers everything you need? Total RPA is a comprehensive UAV training organisation supplying the basic courses plus the additional knowledge you may need.
We offer the most basic drone coursework, which leads to the RPA Operator’s certificate or Remote Pilot Certificate. Both are appropriate for the legal regulations as set forth by CASA. The Remote Pilot Certification is geared towards the sole operator, while the RPA Operator’s Certificate will encompass your business as a whole. This second option is preferred for those looking to add drone operations to a current business or starting a new drone business. Both drone training courses multi-day programs that will equip you with everything you need for safe, skilled UAV flying.
You can also add to your skills toolbox with short courses in Basic Digital Photography, Mapping and Surveying, and more.
