ARLINGTON, Va. (Sept. 20, 2023) – The Charlotte campus of Aviation Institute of Maintenance (AIM) has been recognized by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC) as a 2022-2023 School of Excellence. During their annual three-day Professional Development Conference, ACCSC recognizes accredited institutions that have demonstrated a commitment to the expectations and rigors of accreditation as well as a commitment to delivering quality educational programs.
AIM Charlotte received Initial Accreditation from ACCSC in 2019 and was recently reaccredited for a 6-year period beginning in 2021. The School of Excellence designation reflects AIM Charlotte’s commitment to maintaining high standards of education and training, as demonstrated by successfully completing the reaccreditation process and satisfying all criteria required to be in good standing with the Commission, as well as meeting or exceeding the average rates of graduation and employment among all ACCSC-accredited institutions.
Alex Diaz, Campus Executive Director, says, “I could not be prouder of the dedicated team of professionals who made this recognition possible. The engagement of our team, students, and industry is the cornerstone of what we do at AIM Charlotte.”
AIM Charlotte provides hands-on aviation maintenance training to a current population of approximately 200 students who will have the opportunity to become Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)-certificated Aviation Maintenance Technicians (AMT) upon completion of AIM’s 21-month program and the FAA examinations. Boeing predicts a need for 125,000 technicians in North America from 2023-2042 and AIM’s 14 campuses are focused on providing training and building the pipeline of future aircraft mechanics.
