I found completing the modules online allowed me to progress at my own speed and certainly found when I got into a routine this worked well and was very straight forward.
Writing the operations manual was well supported with good advice form both Liz and Dawn who was my assigned tutor.
When I was ready for my practical exam this was booked effortlessly, luckily my examiner was flexible and we arranged a suitable date, as described in the handout the practical went perfect with an hour for theory and approximately another hour for practical assessment.
On completion of my my flight assessment and final theory exam I applied to the CAA for my PfCO which I again obtained guidance form Liz at 3iC, she was more than happy to help, I have now received my award from the CAA which arrived within 3 weeks of applying.
I’d like to thank 3iC for all the support especially Liz and Dawn, I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a cost efficient, relaxed and hassle free way of obtaining your PfCO.
Thanks

The practical module with 3iC was easy to follow and the examiner (Simon) did all he could to guide me.

Then I came across 3iC.... from the very first conversation with them, they were a breath of fresh air compared to what I had dealt with previously. They answered all my questions & concerns before I booked with them, & the best part was they are a lot cheaper than anyone else. The course supplied was very good & informative & could be done at a pace suitable to my work schedule, which was great for me. At the end of each module you have a test, which is great to check your progress through the course. On completion of the course 3iC help you construct a comprehensive operations manual which is required to be sent to the CAA, once your practical is completed. The flight assessment was promptly booked at a location close to me, with a guy named Simon, who is one of the nicest fellas you will meet. The flight assessment was really enjoyable & I had opted for a couple of extra hours tuition, which I would highly recommend, just to bring you up to speed & learn things which come in very handy. This was followed by a written test which has questions mainly based on the course, so I would recommend not leaving to much time between the two, so information is still fresh in mind.
All passed! Notified 3iC & they set me straight with all which had to be supplied to the CAA, two weeks later & i’m A fully fledged pfco drone pilot, able to take full advantage of my drones potential for our business.
3iC are one of those businesses who really care about their customers & nothing is too much trouble... I cannot recommend highly enough & if you get Simon for the flight assessment, you have struck double Gold!

The online courseware is pitched very well, supplying all the rudimentary information required to pass the PfCO Theory Exam. I studied at my own pace and covered everything twice before booking an assessment. It is supplemented with excellent videos and real world examples to which the training lends very well. Very useful pointers are provided with regard to flying techniques. I was immediately struck by how much the course affected my train of thought when putting a drone in the air. Good practice and safety are strongly encouraged throughout the learning and will make you a better pilot.
I am a relative newcomer to drone operations and was nervous about the assessment component. However I passed with the support and encouragement of everyone involved. My assessor (an RAF instructor) provided not only a a full de-brief of my performance but was also nice enough to explain his own path and the techniques required for me to keep improving.
No brainer. 5 stars.

I have just renewed my PfCO with assistance from 3iC and their knowledge and expertise made a difficult job much easier. I found the renewal notes sent out by the CAA confusing and more easily understood if you already understand them. 3iC templates takes this pain away. They have documents that they know have passed CAA scrutiny and if you use their templates word for word it would seem, providing everything else is in order the CAA rubber stamp is guaranteed. Included in the 3iC package is a very quick and efficient review of the documents you produce with their templates. It works very well.
It is however, in my opinion and experience not perfect. For example I took the complete 3iC online course for my first application (and passed first time), when I was compiling my ops manual from the templates, current at the time I queried items that were in the table of operating characteristics, that is in both the ops manual vol 1 and the systems manual volume 2, which I knew to be incorrect. I was advised that I should leave as was (ie incorrect) because other students had submitted them that way and the CAA had signed off on them. I did as advised and passed. Maybe this approach comes from the military where, in my opinion, this 3iC course emanates. This time I submitted those tables in the format I knew to be correct and passed anyway.
One other criticism is the unnecessary way 3iC have handled the CAA changes. The renewal template was essentially a blank document to be filled in from scratch, for someone updating a 3i original all that is really needed is the “delta”, which could be done on a cut and paste principle. This would have been much easier if required new text was highlighted wording in the renewal template. Some of it was, but most of it was not.
3iC don’t mention it, but maybe if you use their blank document from scratch for your renewal, you will avoid having to have serious word document formatting skills, which will arise if you adopt a cut and paste approach.
I also found some of 3iC abbreviations/definitions in their renewal template to be at variance with new CAA regulations. 3iC say their document is CAA compliant. I used my own interpretation and my documents were approved, but maybe the CCA did not read that page in my manual!
All in all 3iC were extremely helpful and can be recommended. They respond quickly and make a difficult job easier and with apparent certain success, whether it represents value for money, I am not sure. I guess that depends on how the CCA react if you submit a “bummer” without 3iC support.

Having searched around for a few weeks, on recommendations I settled for online teaching as opposed to a physical instructor before me. I was a little sceptical at first but once I'd logged on and found the course content, I was immediately impressed and satisfied I'd made the right choice. Everything is extremely professional and well put together, with a clean modern look. The lessons are extremely well presented and with this style you get to pause to make notes or remind to take the lesson again, which you can do at any time. In th background you get support with questions asked through messaging. After completing the theory your then linked to a local instructor to go through the next phase of practical assessments.
This is a thoroughly professional platform and fantastic customer value. Although intense learning at times this was a great experience and I 100% recommend 3IC.

The course is comprehensive and the tutor narrating it (sadly I don't know who it was as there was never an introduction) was engaging and good-humoured.
Any questions I had during the course were answered very quickly by 3iC.
The Practical Assessment was my biggest fear, but my assessor, Geoff, was very approachable, helpful and I felt like he was 'on my side' rather than looking for faults (I had a couple!).
I passed the course, and in just 5 working days received my PfCO from the CAA.
