Florida Panhandle Technical College in Downtown Chipley, Florida has been recognized as a regional leader in several cutting edge programs which furnish certification to enable real-world applications and well-paid jobs, most recently for the new Drone Program, and much interest is being generated in this burgeoning industry.
The Inaugural FPTC Drone Program, graduating 100% of their class with honors and subsequent FAA licensure in the form of Part 107 Certification, has been featured in the media, most recently by WJHG-TV in Panama City and WTVY-TV in Dothan, Alabama.
