PLEASE NOTE: 2017 GROUND SCHOOL IS CURRENTLY FULL. The 2018 Schedule will be released in September 2017.

These classes, designed and taught by IRISS UAS pilot and UCB Director of Flight Operations Daniel Hesselius, are for individuals seeking to fly unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) under the authority granted to UCB by the FAA. UCB students, faculty and staff who need to operate UAS as part of their work, studies or research are invited to attend.

Each session includes two four-hour classes held one week apart. If you attend the first class in one session but are unable to attend the second class during the same session it may be possible to attend day two during a later session. Classes must, however, be taken consecutively.
