We are now accepting applications for enrollment into our UAV Drone Pilot Certification Program Monday, February 6, 2017.There are only 20 students being accepted. Typically, for a comprehensive hybrid (theory and practice) drone program the average costs would be $8,000 per student. However, we have reduced the average costs to $7,500 per student. The beginners training section is designed to lead students to a promising career in drone aviation. Our professional team, after examining the course design believes this program can lead to an associate degree and/or four year undergraduate degree in Drones. CIOA has worked with drone experts to incorporate UAV course materials into a comprehensive career-building curriculum. Each student upon completion of our training program will be prepared for the FAA Certification Exam and an opportunity to continue their drone studies at an accredited post-secondary university.
