GVC course
A very good course delivered in a friendly and informative way by very approachable instructors.
Training and CAA Licence Renewal
We have used Global Training on five occasions for various drone training sessions and accreditations. Always a pleasure with training delivered in person or at site. Lot's of help available on their FB groups and also on telephone if needed. Also, lot's of help and gentle reminders about CAA renewals! Highley recommended.
Updating certificates to the latest GVC/A2 CofC
Updating certificates to the latest GVC/A2 CofC can feel a little daunting but Global Drone Training could not have made the process more straightforward. The live on line course was friendly, informative and easy to navigate. Everything was explained and clarified; questions were welcomed, making the experience very helpful. Highly recommended.

Couldn't imagine doing it without them ! The CAA process is made so much easier using the Global Drone Training service.
Great experience
Excellent service and support from Alexandra, Elliot and the rest of the team at Global Drone Training. Highly recommended for all drone needs. I will continue to use. A+++++.
Exceptional Support and Service.
Some of the best customer service I've ever had the pleasure of receiving. Global Drone Training have provided me with assistance and advice for years after the completion of my PfCO course. Very much committed to the UAV community rather than just a quick stop training company.
Brilliant company to work with
Brilliant company to work with. Lots of guidance and information
amazing service, deserve more than 5 stars!
I had support from GDT recently to renew my GVC - I couldn't have had a better experience. I'd highly recommend them for your drone training and renewals.
Always really super helpful with any…
Always really super helpful with any questions relating to changes in aviation law. Alexandra and Elliot have just helped me sort out converting my PfCO to GVC and made it really simple. Just took 3 days!
First class service from start to…
First class service from start to finish, My first point of contact Alexandra brings a new definition to efficient, and the instructors Elliot and Jonathan were both spot on with a wealth of knowledge and helpful tips from time served in the industry offering advice and guidance that can only come from experience, overall a superb company to deal with, if looking for Drone training look no further !
Efficient and professional
Our organisation recently used GDT for practical drone flight training and to gain A2 of C certification. The whole GDT team are super helpful and friendly, and we all really enjoyed our flight training with Elliott, who was extremely supportive and patient!
An extremely profesional service
An extremely profesional, knowledgeable and efficient service. They are easy to deal with and helped me with both passing my practical exam and completing my CAA Ops manual. Well worth paying for the membership as it makes renewal of your CAA licence super easier, they are happy to answer a question and really quickly. Great service!
Global Drone Training Renewals
Since I undertook my training with Global Drone Training, they have been nothing short of amazing when supporting me with my renewals. The whole system is set up so that you have to do very little other than providing your flight records and filling in a few details on the application form, and they talk you through every step of the way. I'd be useless without their support so it's definitely a worthwhile investment from my point of view. The entire process takes me about 20 minutes each year, saving me so much time and stress!
Great service and very useful renewal…

I would recommend anyone not having any experience with drones this experience.

As someone whose eyes glaze over at any…
As someone whose eyes glaze over at any Admin task, these guys are an absolute god-send. No question is too stupid and the assistance/hand-holding given to me by opting for their Pro Membership is a no-brainer; making the process through the impenetrable CAA application maze painless and easy. I can't recommend them highly enough and they're lovely people.
Excellent and professional service
Excellent and professional service. They got me through converting from PfCO to Operational Authorisation.
Excellent service
Elliott at GDT was the first professional contact I made when I moved to Norfolk. He has been fantastic since, with helpful advice and contacts, even lending me a piece of kit that I needed to fulfil a client request. It is no surprise to me that many others endorse Global Drone Training for their openness, kindness, knowledge sharing and overall high standard of service.
GDT is consistently excellent.
GDT has been excellent at every stage. I did training with them to obtain my PfCO in 2018 and they have helped me with my renewal process since. In between, they have provided a wealth of knowledge and insight regarding the complex and often unclear rules and laws around drone usage. Alexandra has been of particular help in ensuring my renewals are done as quickly and easily as possible. What a great company to have as a resource!
Completed My A2 C of C and GVC training…

I shall be renewing my Pto Membership when it's due in a few weeks time.
