We have exciting curriculum options at Pitsco Education, especially around an emerging technology: drones.
We’ve all heard about drones and how they’re becoming more and more prevalent in our lives.
- HVAC companies are using drones to inspect hard-to-reach places.
- Farmers are using drones to survey crops to determine which crops are healthy and which ones are not.
- And, yes, drones are even being used to wash windows!

Hats off! You made it to the new year! 🥳 Now, that’s one big achievement to celebrate.

I’m sure most can agree that 2020 has been anything but consistent. (Newsflash!)
If anything, it seems the only consistency this year has been change. Each day, you have new information, new regulations, and new approaches to the way you live your life popping up all around you. However, one thing that remains consistent – now and during the past 49 years of Pitsco’s existence – is our approach to supporting you.
