Certification Program

The HLA's certification program is centered around the Tripoli Rocket Association's (TRA) high power certification program. Members 18 years and older complete training at HLA and attempt a Level 1 (L1) Certification Flight at METRA Rocket Club. They need to build, launch and successfully recover a rocket using a certified HPR motor in the H to I impulse range. High Power Level 1 Certification allows a member to purchase and use H and I impulse class commercial manufactured hobby motors. HLA also provides resources for members to get a Level 2 and Level 3 certification.
