Contractor & Agency Training Services
Training, assessment, and train-the-trainer services that reduce lifecycle support costs and deliver complete, documentable operator qualification to your government customers.
Training, assessment, and train-the-trainer services for defense contractors fielding UAS platforms and government agencies establishing or expanding UAS programs. We help you develop operator proficiency programs, validate training effectiveness, and reduce lifecycle support costs.
Your Training Problem, Directly
You’re delivering a UAS platform to a government customer. They need trained operators. You need that training to be repeatable, documentable, and not dependent on your team being on-site forever.
Or: You’re a government agency that just acquired platforms. You have no internal training pipeline and no budget to keep calling the manufacturer.
We solve both problems.

10 days | End-user operator training
Deliver initial operator qualification to your government customer's end-users. Complete FPV integration, field sustainment, and tactical employment. Use this as your platform IOQ course or bundle it with FFF-402 to deliver operators and an internal trainer simultaneously.

Program Details →Platform-Specific Training Development
Custom scope | Contact for details
If you're fielding a non-FPV platform or need training tailored to a specific system, we develop custom curriculum under a separate agreement. We've built training for fixed-wing VTOL, Group 2/3 platforms, and specialized sensor payloads. Contact us with your platform specs.
Discuss Your Requirements →For Government Agencies
If you’re a federal, state, or local agency that has acquired platforms and needs to build an internal training program — we provide the same courses available to DoD, at government pricing, through standard contract vehicles.

Request Agency Proposal →Why Contractors Use Us
Reduce your lifecycle support costs. If your customer has a certified internal trainer after delivery, your on-site support obligation drops significantly.
Deliver a complete solution. Bundling platform delivery with a documented training program strengthens your proposal and reduces customer risk — a common evaluation criterion.
Third-party credibility. Assessment services from an independent training organization carry more weight with government acceptance testers than vendor self-certification.
