Vilnius city to launch drone flying course in September

Vilnius City invites residents to learn flying drones in a training course starting in September.

The 0.9-hectare drone training area, which opened in Šeškinė Hills in August, will offer drone training classes for schoolchildren and a drone operation programme for adults.

Five institutions will deliver accredited non-formal drone operation programmes in Vilnius: the capital city’s Children and Youth Centre (Hobiverse), Inovatyvaus ugdymo centras, Nataliya Kazakova Computer School, Mokslo šviesa and CodeAcademy Kids.

For these programmes, Vilnius City will allocate a EUR 50 basket for pupils from Year 1 to year 12.
