• Review of A2 regulatory requirements: horizontal distance to uninvolved people (= 30 m, or 5 m when low-speed mode), altitude limits, no overflight of assemblies of people, operator registration, liability/insurance.
• Advanced pre-flight planning: identification of uninvolved people, dynamic risk assessment, route planning to avoid people, airspace awareness (UAS geographical zone, NOTAMs, airspace restrictions).
• Advanced drone control and situational awareness: controlled approaches over/near uninvolved people (respecting buffer distances), maintaining stable altitude and distance, smooth maneuvers, low-speed mode management, orientation and line-of-sight maintenance.
• Emergency management: GNSS/RC-Link loss, failsafe activation, unexpected people entering flight zone, quick landing and abort procedures.
• Flight logging and post-flight evaluation focusing on compliance with safety distances and risk mitigation and reflection on human factor aspects (distractions, awareness, decisions).
• Environmental awareness (wind, obstacles, terrain, noise, privacy).

• Supervised practical flights in carefully chosen semi-controlled environments, with scenarios simulating the approach of uninvolved persons to practice buffer management and distancing.
• Use of low-speed mode and altitude/distance control drills.
• Pre-flight planning exercises: pilots prepare a flight plan, identify risks, set buffer zones, choose alternative landing zones, simulate dynamic changes.
• Emergency drills: simulate loss of GNSS or RC (ATTI flight-mode), unexpected people entering area, abrupt environmental changes (wind gusts), and practice safe aborts and landings.

• Remote pilot certificate for sub-category A1/A3
• A1/A3 practical training or evidence of flight experience (For example : hours logged drone flights, please insert this information when you enroll for the training in the message box : Message for CNFPC )
• To have completed the A2 theoretical training online via the EUROCONTROL website.

The in-person examination administered by the DAC, which leads to the attainment of the A2 for Remote Drone Pilot certificate, may be taken upon completion of the practical training. This sequence fully aligns with the procedure established by the DAC. During registration for the A2 examination, the candidate is required to formally confirm that they possess the practical competencies necessary to operate a UAS within the A2 category, hence these competencies hall be acquired and demonstrated through the practical training.
