Blended delivery
Online study, instructor-led practical training, data processing and applied project activity.

A practical capability for the people already on your projects
Give your site engineers, surveyors and project teams another way to collect and use information. The Skills Bootcamp connects drone operation with the surveying and reporting tasks that construction professionals recognise.
Bring a real business question with you: how could we improve site records, measure material stockpiles or create clearer progress reports?
Use the programme to explore an approach suited to your organisation, before deciding what equipment to invest in.
WHAT IS A SKILLS BOOTCAMP?
Focused training with a purpose beyond the classroom
Skills Bootcamps are short, flexible programmes for adults, typically lasting up to 16 weeks. They build skills that employers need and connect learning with work, new responsibilities or business opportunities.
At Iprosurv, that means connecting drone flying with an application: what information do you need, how will you capture it, and what will you do with the result?
WHAT WE DELIVER
Drone Surveying & Digital Construction Skills
Our Bootcamp helps professionals explore how drone capture can support construction, surveying and infrastructure work. Build operational knowledge alongside an understanding of the digital outputs your team could use.
Capture and process
Connect image collection with the maps, models and digital information needed for a defined task.
Measure and apply
Explore how aerial information could support progress records, material measurement and project reporting.
Training towards A2 CofC and GVC is included in the advertised programme, subject to assessment. The training team will confirm the qualification route and current syllabus before enrolment.
Who could benefit?
Construction and civil engineering businesses, surveying practices, site and asset teams, and self-employed professionals developing their services. Bring a task or challenge from your own work so the learning has a clear purpose.
No previous drone experience or aircraft ownership is required. Training aircraft are provided. The programme combines online study, instructor-supported practical activity and work with digital data; the full timetable is agreed before you join.

No. Use the programme to understand the equipment and software that could suit your intended work before making a buying decision.
Can I enquire for more than one employee?
Yes. Tell us the roles, number of learners and applications you have in mind. Suitability and funded places are checked for each learner.
What if I am outside these areas?
Enquire with your postcodes. We can check the available routes and explain relevant commercial training options if this funded programme does not fit.
