Mugen no Sora Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture; President: Akihiro Hisamori), which operates Japan's largest drone training network, announces that the number of instructors affiliated with its dormitory-style drone school, "Drone Campus," has exceeded 100 nationwide.
Since changing its company name in December 2025, the company has rapidly accelerated its nationwide expansion, now operating 18 locations, the largest in Japan, from Iwate to Kagoshima. With this milestone of "over 100 instructors," we will further strengthen our educational system and promote the recruitment and training of instructors who leverage local talent.
■ Background: Increasing "Practical Value" of National Qualifications. Deregulation by Legal Reforms Provides a Tailwind
As the social implementation of drones rapidly progresses, the importance of "national qualifications (unmanned aircraft pilot)" in practical operations has become decisive, with measures to simplify flight applications for private qualification holders ending in 2025.
In addition to this trend towards "unifying national qualifications," the latest legal reforms (*) may, under certain conditions, exempt national qualification holders from the previously mandatory application for permission/approval from the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism for agricultural spraying and forestry. This significant reduction in administrative burden and improvement in operational efficiency is accelerating the use of drones in smart agriculture, infrastructure inspection, and disaster prevention sites, leading to a rapid increase in students aiming to acquire immediate-use licenses at our school.

■ Message from the Representative
Akihiro Hisamori, President, Mugen no Sora Co., Ltd.
"Since the era of private qualifications, we have consistently provided drone education rooted in local communities. Since starting the national qualification course in 2023, our one-on-one instruction, tailored to each student, has been highly praised, and we have received many positive feedbacks, with the pass rate currently reaching 90%."
"Drones are the protagonists of the 'aerial industrial revolution.' Supporting their safety is not just about technology, but about the power of 'people who care about their communities.' Now that we have over 100 instructors and 18 locations, we will train even more pilots who can be active in various regions. We are currently actively recruiting instructors who share our vision for further expansion of our locations."
