The Kentucky Agriculture Training School held two successful Drone Pilot Certification Workshops, one in December 2021, and the next on in March 2022. Both of these classes were held in Western KY, however, there was a strong request for one to be held in Eastern KY. With the help of Elliot Co. Extension Agent Jacob Ison, we were able to make that happen in June 2022. I corresponded with the instructor who flew the distance from Champaign Illinois to teach the class in Morehead, KY. We advertised and reached back out to those that previously requested the training and filled the class with 15 participants. I shipped books directly to Elliot Co extension office, where Jacob also printed the other required booklets. I worked with each participant to guide them in signing up for the Exam. I also worked with KY Airmotives in Mt. Sterling to accommodate approximately half of the class to take their exam there, while helping arrange testing appointments at 3 other centers for the remaining participants. All of the responding participants were very pleased with the class and successfully passed the exam.
