Licensed RPAS pilots are in demand across agriculture, construction, mining, media, utilities and public safety. Here is how ACE turns your training into paid commercial work.
Four clear steps from complete beginner to winning commercial contracts.
Complete your RePL (and AROC where required) through ACE's blended online theory and hands-on practical flight assessment.
Add the endorsements employers ask for — larger RPA categories, night operations pathways, XAG agriculture or drone-cleaning specialisations.
ACE graduates get access to DroneWork, our platform that connects qualified pilots with paid commercial tasks and employers across Australia.
Start taking on contracts as a sole operator, or step onto an existing ReOC — with ongoing support from the ACE community as you grow.
Commercial sectors across Australia that rely on licensed remote pilots — and the tasks they hire for.
Broadacre and horticulture operators use medium-category drones to spray, spread and map crops far faster than ground rigs.
Builders and civil contractors capture progress data, volumes and site models without shutting the site down.
Survey firms produce orthomosaics, point clouds and digital terrain models from the air.
Energy, telco and infrastructure asset owners inspect towers, lines, solar farms and roofs without rope access or shutdowns.
Production houses, agencies and real-estate marketers shoot cinematic aerials for film, TV, advertising and events.
Resource operators survey pits, monitor haul roads and manage tailings and rehabilitation with routine aerial data.
Fire, SES and enforcement agencies use drones for situational awareness, search and post-incident assessment.
Agents and property managers showcase homes, land and developments with aerial stills and video.
ACE graduates get exclusive access to DroneWork — our platform connecting qualified pilots directly with paid commercial tasks and employers across Australia.
