Drone Short Courses and Training
The University of Adelaide offers short courses and training opportunities for people and organisations who use drones - also known as unmanned aircraft or Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS).
We offer short courses for all levels of drone use, as well as bespoke programs for industry.
You’ll learn from experts at the Unmanned Research Aircraft Facility, Australia’s leading University-based drone operator training and education provider.
