Marine mechanics: repair the mechanical and electrical equipment of inboard and outboard boat engines. Most of these repairs are carried out at docks and marinas. The mechanics may also work on marine plumbing, propellers, steering mechanisms and other boat equipment. Some of the repairs may be simple like just replacing a spark plug, while some may entail taking the engine apart and repairing it completely.
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.
