Save
UAS Instructors play a critical role in educating and training individuals who wish to operate unmanned aerial systems (UAS), also known as drones. They are responsible for developing and delivering curriculum, conducting practical training exercises, and evaluating student performance. UAS Instructors typically work at educational institutions, such as colleges and universities, or at private training centers that specialize in UAS instruction.
Educational Requirements
Most UAS Instructors hold a bachelor's degree in a field related to aviation, such as aviation science, aeronautical engineering, or meteorology. Some instructors may also have experience working in the aviation industry, such as piloting drones or managing UAS operations. In addition to formal education and experience, UAS Instructors must also be certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as Remote Pilot in Command (PIC).
