The city of Wilmington, Delaware, is partnering with a drone school to provide drone training programs for teens. The program is part of a growing trend across the country where schools are teaching students how to fly drones. Experts say it's a way to give kids a leg up on the technology that's expected to create jobs in the future.
“People are finding new ways to use drones every day,” John T. Mims, a professor at High Point University, a school that teaches drone use, told Lifewire in an email interview. “For our students: video production, aerial photography, cell tower inspections, search and rescue, or really anything that needs to be done from the air with a camera.”
The Wilmington program is designed for high school juniors and seniors. Students receive 16 weeks of training on drone operation. Graduates of the drone course also take the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) exam to become licensed drone pilots.
