What’s the relationship between training centers and DJI Academy headquarters? Do staff at training centers work for DJI Academy headquarters?
DJI Academy authorizes training centers across the globe to conduct courses, and every instructor must be trained at DJI Academy headquarters before teaching at their respective centers. Currently, we have a faculty of over 1000 certificated teachers.
Do I need to take the exam before applying for certification renewal?
No, currently, there’s no additional exam. You can directly contact the local training center and submit your application.
If I purchase a DJI drone, do I get to take free courses?
No. The course provided by DJI Academy is comprehensive training for UAS industrial application.
How can I reach customer service?
To contact DJI Academy customer service, email service@uastc.com. To inquire about business partnerships, you can email marketing@uastc.com.
I have no time to go to the local training center to apply for certification renewal in person. Is there any way to submit the application online?
If you have no time to apply in person, you can send an email to your training center and submit your application. Please attach two photos; one of the previous certification, and the other of you holding your certification card. Please make sure the information on the two photos is clear without any obstruction.
Where can I take a course?
You can browse for a training center near you on the official website. All training centers are certified by DJI Academy headquarters and meet all facility and instructor standards.
How long does it take to renew my certification?
Normally, it takes 30 working days to issue a card. To avoid impacting regular use, please contact your local training center to apply for certification renewal in time.
I use non-DJI drones for work or other purposes. If I take courses that use DJI drones for training, will these skills still apply?
Yes. Generally speaking, operational principles for most multi-rotor systems are similar.
How do I know when my certification will expire? What kind of certification should be renewed?
Currently, only the UTC certification card needs to be renewed regularly. There is no need to renew the certification paper. You can check the date of expiration on your certification card.
What are the requirements for registration?
Students must be at least 16 years of age, and be without any medical conditions that could affect flight safety such as red-green color blindness.
How can I receive my certification after submitting the certification renewal application?
After you settle the payment, the local training center will submit your application to UTC HQ. HQ will issue the card as soon as possible. When the certification is ready, HQ will ship them to the local training center. The training center will then ship the certification to you, or you can pick up your certification in person.
I am too busy to take a course at a training center. Are these courses available online?
We have an online course for the UAS Pilot Training – Level 1; however, after the online learning is completed, you will still need to go to a local training center to perform onsite training.
Who should I contact if I want to collaborate or work with DJI Academy?
You can send your contact information and proposal to marketing@uastc.com.
