Our A2 CofC and GVC training follows a blended learning format, combining mandatory online training with an in-person assessment day at our Little Donham office in Cambridgeshire.
The course begins with online learning, which must be completed in full before attending the in-person assessment. This online phase covers the core theory, exam preparation, operational considerations, and flight assessment readiness.
Once the online training is completed, candidates attend an in-person assessment day, which includes:
A2 CofC theory examination
GVC theory examination
Practical flight assessment (weather permitting)

Training and assessment are delivered in partnership with Commercial Drone Training (CDT).
As part of the GVC training, we also provide free support with your CAA online application to help ensure it is completed correctly and efficiently.
