Roots2Wings

Roots2Wings is developing two $1,000 learner pathways: Curiosity (In development), an in-person recreational drone-learning course with guided flight, safety, and the FAA’s free TRUST test; and Innovation (In development), a mentor-guided, remote-first course focused on commercial drone knowledge and preparation for the FAA’s Part 107 certification process. Both pathways run with local mentors, museums, airports, and clubs. A seat can be paid as tuition or supported through sponsorship. Need-based scholarships will be available. Free recreational self-study materials are also in development. Course availability and local partners will be announced as delivery is arranged; an interest inquiry is not enrollment.
