Where Makers Meet Sky

What We Do

Real drone learning for school students.

DRONIAC is a tech initiative which deals in educating school going children about drones. From understanding the basics of drone making to working with the more advanced forms of drones, we expose children to real-life drone usage applications.

The most exciting part of the curriculum is to teach children how to fly a drone and certify them with a completion certificate of Drone Flying Course with real-time flight time logging for proper records of the training.

Successful completion of the Making and Flying Drones trainings, i.e. DM-I and DF-I, ensures the entry of the student into our Drone Flying Club, where they can participate in drone flying tournaments and showcase their drone flying skills.

We teach students mainly by mentoring and guiding rather than lecturing and spoon-feeding. Students learn by doing, making, testing, and flying.

About DRONIAC

A focused drone education venture by NinjaMinds.

DRONIAC is a venture owned and managed by NinjaMinds. We provide NEP-compliant extracurricular skill development courses aimed towards technology and the application of technology in various fields.

Previously, we worked as MINDGRIND PVT LTD with more than 22 schools across Himachal Pradesh and Jammu. Carrying nearly a decade of teaching experience, we founded NinjaMinds and DRONIAC.

DRONIAC focuses on imparting knowledge of drone making and flying to school-going children so that young minds may develop an interest in technology, practical skills, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
