The Part 107 Remote Pilot Exam Prep Course is a 1-day (8 hour) course that prepares individuals to pass the FAA Aeronautical Knowledge Exam towards receiving a Remote Pilot Certificate for commercial drone operation.   This course only focuses on the topics tested on the exam; we do not cover basic drone information.    No previous aviation experience is necessary to successfully participate in the course.

The FAA Aeronautical Knowledge Exam needs to be taken at an FAA-approved testing location, so the exam is not administered during the course; instructions for registering for the exam and the remote pilot certificate application are provided.

 Pre-registration is required with a $275 registration fee.  Study materials and lunch will be provided. 

An educational discount is available to students and educators.  If you are eligible to receive the discount, a PROMO Code will be provided to you by email.  Please complete the education discount application at https://go.unl.edu/part107EducationDiscount to be considered for this discount.
