Drone Training Courses

Australia’s Most Comprehensive Drone Certification Institution

Get the education you need to have the career you want. To pilot a drone, RPA, or UAV for commercial purposes within Australia, you need the proper certification. Remote Pilots Licences are issued by CASA, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, and in order to obtain one you must complete a training course with an approved training provider. At Total RPA, we provide fully CASA certified training and consulting packages.

Total RPA Virtual classroom

Total RPA has always offered virtual classroom training for remote communities and those who couldn’t make it to one of our scheduled courses and venues.

With the recent and massive changes to the way Australians will be living for the foreseeable future, we are now offering virtual classroom training to Everybody, Australia Wide.

What this means is that you can still participate in an instructor lead class, accessed through your desktop, laptop or device. The course content remains unchanged and you will still have access to total RPA’s state of the art online training platform which actually learns and evolves to your individual needs, making sure you receive structured, tailored training to facilitate the best learning outcome possible. Note this is a LIVE class in real time, there is no recorded content.

The flight training components will be arranged in very small groups, out in the open training/ flying areas to minimise any contact and adhere to social isolation rules.

Remote Pilot Certification

Total RPA are one of the only organisations accredited by CASA to deliver this course. The course is designed for, and aimed specifically at, the new drone/UAV (Multi-rotor) pilot. Over the 5 days, you will learn all about RPA systems, aerodynamics, mission planning and preparation and various other topics that will prepare you for a career as a drone pilot in Australia. Upon successful completion of the course, you will have your Remote Pilots Licence and aviation radio operators certificate.

 

CASA ReOC — RPA Operator’s Certificate

If you want to start a serious drone business or add drones to your existing business, you need to hold a CASA RPA Operator’s Certificate (ReOC).
