The FAA Part 107 course is a more advanced course for professional/commercial users of drones. We have built our own course to teach this but unlike other courses, we can’t host the exam portion of this qualification. This has to be done in person at an approved testing centre and can’t be completed online.
After you complete the Part 107 course, the FAA has a separate exam which must be completed at one of their exam centres. The FAA issues the qualification. Drone TRUST provides the knowledge to be able to sit and pass this FAA exam. The exams we have embedded in the course are practice exams with no requirement to pass a practical flight assessment.
