Aviation Institute of Maintenance - Atlanta Metro
What Makes the AIM Atlanta Metro So Special?
The AIM degree programs enhance critical thinking skills and provide
our students with the opportunity to develop strong writing, mathematical, science, and communication skills, which may lead to greater opportunities for professional growth in the competitive aviation profession.
AIM students learn the specialized skills necessary to work on structures, powerplants, aircraft systems, flight controlled systems, and engine systems, and become eligible and prepared for certification by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as an Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) Mechanic.

Why the Atlanta Metro Campus
The only thing better than visiting Atlanta is living here! With a booming economy, great weather, and an unparalleled lifestyle, it’s easy to see why so many people call Atlanta home. Neighborhoods range from unique and eclectic with tree-lined streets, to expansive suburban mansions.
Both mountains and the ocean are only a day trip away. Thanks to the busiest airport in the world, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, 80 percent of the United States is within two hours of the city.
Atlanta is home to the Atlanta Braves baseball, Atlanta Falcons football, and Atlanta Hawks basketball. In addition to sports Atlanta boasts more than 8,000 restaurants servicing everything from international fare to down-home southern cooking. And Atlanta’s nightlife is definitely on the cutting edge.
AIM’s new aircraft technician school campus sits less than 30 miles from downtown Atlanta, GA in the city of Duluth. The city continues to grow with a strong commercial and residential base but maintains a small-town charm with plenty of open spaces for outdoor activities.

To fill that need, we went beyond aviation to develop related industry technician programs.

My name is Angel Youngblood and I showed up at AIM one day and spoke to admissions. Soon thereafter I was enrolled, training, and on my way to becoming an A&P Mechanic. At AIM, my instructors prepared us for a successful career, and as an AIM graduate I got a job offer from my first application submitted. I have my A&P and I have my career. If you put in the work, you will succeed through AIM.
