About AIM - Aviation Institute of Maintenance
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.
For more information about our graduation rates, the median debt of students who have completed the program, and other important information, please call ASO today!

Angel Youngblood - AIM Graduate
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.
