"I have very much enjoyed the hands-on learning I have gained from the Concurrent Enrollment Aeronautics course I took at the Innovation Center. The course, UAS Flight Concepts and Training, helped me figure out what steps I need to take for the career I want to pursue. I was also able to earn my FAA Remote Pilot Certificate, which allows me to fly a drone for hire and is a great head start on pursuing a career in aviation. I recommend this course to other students because it will help them figure out the world of aviation and all the possibilities that come with it!"
