In today’s show, we discuss if formal education is necessary for becoming a successful drone pilot.
Our caller, Josh from New York is thinking of getting a formal degree in drone technology. Should Josh go ahead and invest thousands of dollars in formal education? Does a four-year degree matter when you enter the marketplace? This question creates an interesting standoff between Paul and Rob.
While Paul places more importance on real-world experience, Rob feels that getting a formal education is a must. Do universities teach you the latest and most relevant content? Can getting a four-year degree help you overcome the professional challenges that you will face as a drone pilot? Tune in to find out if Rob and Paul can arrive at a consensus. Thanks for the great question, Josh. Fly safe!
