Aviation Institute of Maintenance - Norfolk
About The Norfolk Area and Norfolk AIM Campus
The Hampton Roads area is the state’s largest metro area and home to major military installations representing all branches of the Armed Forces. Norfolk is home of the world’s largest Naval Base, 
Naval Station Norfolk. Aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines often cruise into port, while sophisticated fighter planes roar overhead.
Close by, Virginia Beach is among the nation’s fastest growing cities. Virginia Beach has over 25 miles of beach, and a lively strip of restaurants, hotels, video arcades, haunted houses and water rides line the Oceanfront. This resort city has excellent opportunities for surfing, deep-sea fishing, hunting, golf, and many other recreational activities. Just south at North Carolina’s Outer Banks, is Kitty Hawk – the birthplace of aviation – where the Wright Brothers made their historic first flight in 1903.

"We Teach the Foundation," Mischell Hosin, AIM. "What we teach here at AIM is actually the foundation," Mischell Hosin - AIM Admissions Representative, Mischell Hosin, one of AIM's top Admissions Representatives, shares her passion for her job at AIM and offers some tips to new and prospective students.
AIM is part of a successful group of companies, which first began in Norfolk, Virginia, in 1969 and has grown to become a network of AIM campuses across the nation. We have maintained a tradition of excellence in education and workforce development throughout the expansion over more than four decades.
AIM is well-known for providing high quality, hands-on training to our students in Aviation Maintenance programs. But as time went on, we saw other industry leaders demanding similar skills our aviation students have after graduating. To fill that need, we went beyond aviation to develop related industry technician programs.

We offer programs in aviation, maintenance, welding, and technician fields, whether it be for aircraft maintenance, maintenance technician, combination welding, industrial manufacturing, or HVAC.
