About the program
It’s no secret that drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), are everywhere, and it seems they’re here to stay. Like it or not, drones are only increasing in popularity, and not just among hobbyists. Drones are already benefiting a variety of different industries, includingagriculture, entertainment, architecture, and evenlaw enforcement.And since drone technology is constantly evolving, there’s no telling how they might be used in the future.
National drone industry surveys predict strong growth, which will inevitably influence opportunity at the local level. According to a report in 2019 by Business Insider, the market is set to be worth $63.6 billion by 2025. This number encompasses the broader drone landscape which includes drone manufacturing, drone software and ancillary services. However, the positive impact for local drone business is inevitable. Currently, enterprises are broadening their drone programs and are seeking independent and qualified drone pilots and recruiting drone pilots as employees to fulfill their needs.
Poise Graduate Finishing Academy (PoiseGFA) in partnership with Global Air Drone Academy (GADA) have launched a training curriculum that will aid in tackling poverty and creating work and economic growth by equipping teenagers and youths from underserved communities and background with global drone technology and piloting skills as well as soft skills.
