Candidate-to-capability pathways
Individual records from account creation through exam, flight review and licence, rolled up into group and department views for program managers.
Developed in Canada. Built for Canadian RPAS programs.
Build the people. Prove the capability. Prepare to deploy.
ReadyGrid connects candidate development, practical competency, organizational standards and deployment readiness, so Canadian organizations can build drone capability they can see, explain and grow.

Capability lifecycle
From first candidate to fielded capability
- 01
Define
Set the capability your organization needs: roles, operations, standards and the people who will carry them.
- 02
Develop
Move candidates through Canadian certification pathways with structured, trackable milestones.
- 03
Validate
Confirm practical skills and judgment through instructor-led assessment and scenario exercises.
- 04
Deploy
Field an organizational capability: qualified people, documented standards and a clear picture of who is ready.
- 05
Sustain
Keep currency, recency and standards up to date as people, fleets and operations change.
- 06
Scale & Fund
Extend across departments and sites, with records that support program planning and funding evidence.
Platform capabilities
Six connected capabilities
Practical skills and judgment
SFOC-specific scenarios and instructor-led assessment. AI-assisted study helps candidates prepare; qualified instructors make every assessment decision.
Credentials and development records
Keep pilot certificate numbers and training records in one place, with uploaded documents clearly distinguished from credentials verified by an instructor.
SOPs and organizational standards
Connect training to your own standard operating procedures so readiness reflects how your organization actually flies.
Mixed-fleet capability oversight
A conceptual geographic view of registered locations and pilot-reported deployments. It is not live tracking; future live integrations will be clearly labeled.
Program investment and funding evidence
Planning support and outcome records that help organizations describe their training investment. ReadyGrid does not guarantee or apply for funding.
Canadian pathway
Built around the Canadian development pathway
ReadyGrid uses Canadian terminology and workflows, and is developed in Canada by 11 Alpha for the way Canadian institutions train, document and oversee RPAS operations.
- Basic, Advanced and Level 1 Complex pathways
- SFOC and RPOC-configurable learning
- Institutional roles and approval workflows
- Candidate and operator terminology by audience
Applications
Configured for the institutions that fly
Regional districts and municipalities
Coordinate training across departments and keep oversight of who is qualified for what.
Police, fire and public safety
Develop qualified teams and keep readiness visible to unit supervisors.
First Nations governments and Guardians
Build community-led capability for land, water and stewardship programs.
Training providers and educators
Run cohorts with candidate-friendly language and program-manager oversight.
Utilities, industry and marine
Align operator development with site standards and inspection programs.
Security and defence
Explore how structured competency records could adapt to unit-specific standards.
Proposed licensing model
Licensed to organizations, shaped to each program
- Annual organizational licensing
- Configurable workflows, roles and terminology
- Optional branded environments
- Implementation, training and consulting services
- Expansion across departments
Status
Working foundation. Defined development pathway.
Existing foundation
- Multi-organization training accounts
- Program manager and candidate roles
- Candidate progress oversight across groups
- AI-assisted exam preparation
- Scenario exercises and mission planning
- Integrated messaging between instructors, managers and candidates
- About 20 active candidates and program managers across two institutional clients
Proposed development
- Credential verification workflows
- Assessment and judgment-training records
- SOP governance
- Geographic capability oversight
- Funding-plan and outcome-reporting workflows
- Configurable institutional licensing
- Data exchange with operational platforms
