"Awesome company and the delivery of training is excellent. Wonderful, understanding trainers and support. Always available to answer questions and help."
"I was searching for a licence to pilot a very specific, uncommon type of drone. The guys at ACE were the only company who knew what I was talking about and explained the whole process clearly and with knowledge."
"Completed my RePL with ACE and landed my first agricultural contract within three weeks of graduating. The XAG training was invaluable — no other school offers anything close to that level of practical experience."
"I came in with zero aviation background. The instructors broke everything down into plain English and never made me feel behind. Passed first attempt and I'm now doing survey work for a major construction firm in Queensland."
"The DroneWork platform alone is worth the course fee. Had three job offers within a month of completing my Gold package. ACE genuinely invests in your career beyond just the licence."
