Law enforcement agencies across the country are rapidly integrating drone technology to support public safety missions — from search and rescue to crime scene documentation, traffic management, and tactical operations.

Join us September 23 at the North Little Rock Police FOP Lodge for a one-day, in-depth training designed specifically for law enforcement professionals who are looking to build or enhance a small Unmanned Aerial System (sUAS) program within their department.

Course Overview:

This comprehensive training will guide participants through the technical, legal, and operational considerations necessary to successfully launch and manage a sUAS program. Attendees will receive expert instruction on everything from FAA certification to public safety mission planning and flight operations.

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to strengthen your existing drone capabilities, this course provides the foundation you need.
