"Law Enforcement Drona Association (LEDA) Bend 2022 - An Intensive, Hands-On Training Conference"

The Law Enforcement Drone Association is excited to announce a returning conference in Bend, September 27-30, 2022. This will not be a seminar driven conference. We provide half classroom training and half hands-on training time.  Attendees will have the opportunity to fly on more than ten different training scenarios with various levels of difficulty. Our training is going to benefit agencies with all skill levels, from those just starting a drone (Small Unmanned Aircraft System -SUAS) program, to those with advanced teams.

This Conference is for Sworn Law Enforcement Officers Only. Exceptions may be made for Fire/SAR personnel who assist in Law Enforcement Missions. Please reach out to us with any inquires.

The Bend Police Department is the host agency. Registration is limited in order to keep our focus on being a small, intimate training group where everyone can get to know each other, have quality time with select vendors, and get as much flight time as possible.
